I experienced the same issue. After sucessfull OpenVPN connection /var/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf contains the following:
server=/10.in-addr.arpa/10.1.106.7 server=192.168.0.1 server=192.168.3.2 This 10.in-addr.arpa prefix appears only when "Use this connection only for resources on its network" checkbox was turned on at IPV4 routes page of VPN configuration window. Syslog contains the following: ... Mar 23 09:41:35 shakira dnsmasq[4138]: using nameserver 10.1.106.7#53 for domain 10.in-addr.arpa ... Finally, I found, that the OpenVPN server was not pushing down the domain suffix. After inserting the proper "dhcp-option DOMAIN" entry into openvpn server configuration, it started to work. openvpn server.conf: ... push "dhcp-option DNS 10.1.106.7" push "dhcp-option DOMAIN dev.xxx.domain.com" ... /var/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf: ... server=/devzone.cloud.xemeti.com/10.1.106.7 ... So I think it is not a client side bug, just a server side configuration requirement. Affects only users with "Use this connection.." flag turned on, without dhcp-option DOMAIN push entry. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924013 Title: VPN DNS only works for IP, not names To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/924013/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
