Public bug reported:

I have a VPN set up in Network Manager, which worked well when my system
was running 11.10.

After upgrading to 12.04, I've noticed that DNS changes needed by the
VPN aren't happening.  Hosts that only resolve within the VPN won't
resolve, and hosts that are supposed to resolve with different IP
addresses inside the VPN don't.

I can see the new, proper nameserver configuration in /var/run/nm-dns-
dnsmasq.conf.  I can resolve properly if I query the name server
directly, i.e. "host <name-to-resolve> <vpn-dns-server-ip>".  And, if I
use that IP address instead of the name, I can successfully do things
like ssh.  But simple resolution appears to still be using the old name
server.

At one point, I killed off dnsmasq and wrote a new /etc/resolv.conf with
the VPN name servers.  That worked, but caused all manner of problems
later.
