Binary package hint: network-manager-openvpn
When connecting to a openvpn server using network-manager-openvpn and
network-manager interface, the name servers provided by the openvpn
server is not used. You can only connect to the Internet using IP-
addresses, if you block the parent Internet connection of the openvpn-
connection.
Example: If I block eth0's name server port using iptables, when the
connection is established, all nameserver lookups fail. If I don't do
this block Internet name server lookups work, but the wrong name server
is used. Internal resources doesn't work.
