I just discovered this issue in a newly upgraded version of Lubuntu 15.10. I tried two of the possible solutions in this thread. The "sudo openvpn --config file.ovpn" doesn't work for me, it gives an error: "Error: Object 'nm' is unknown"... This DNS leak is really annoying because it makes my vpn connection useless!
