I'd like to point out that the description of the bug is inaccurate. When networkmanager uses dnsmasq, resolv.conf should not be updated when new dns servers must be used. Instead, networkmanager needs to update dnsmasq's configuration. And it does not do that, which is a problem.
Proper description should be: network manager openvpn dns push data not updating system dns addresses I can confirm that the problem exists on 14.10. ** Summary changed: - network manager openvpn dns push data not updating resolv.conf + network manager openvpn dns push data not updating system DNS addresses -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1211110 Title: network manager openvpn dns push data not updating system DNS addresses Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in openvpn package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When IPv4 Method is set to Automatic VPN, DNS address recieved from OpenVPN server do not update resolv.conf. This can be achieved when using a standard openvpn config file by adding the lines: script-security 2 up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf In Network-manager there seems to be no option to run connection specific scripts and the DNS data from the server is ignored.
