I started using my employer's OpenVPN today and encountered name resolution problems. From my research, this here bug appears to be plaguing me, as well (I'm on 12.10). Commenting the line dns=dnsmasq in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf does fix the problem. However, _all_ DNS is routed out the VPN in this case. I rather like the idea of splitting the DNS responsibilities.
I see there's still the unresolved question of whether re-enabling --strict-order will suffice as a workaround, since 12.10 relies on DBus to populate the nameservers. Is there any extra information on this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1003842 Title: dnsmasq sometimes fails to resolve private names in networks with non- equivalent nameservers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/1003842/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
