Actually, I'd like to retract part of what I said above. Via tcpdump, I was able to confirm that --push on the server for "dhcp-option DNS ..." and "redirect-gateway" ARE ACTUALLY WORKING, though the changes are not visible in /etc/resolv.conf. Rather, they are updated in dnsmasq and resolv.conf points to dnsmasq. (I don't think the "def1" flag for "redirect-gateway" works.)
In my view, two things are needed: (1) a documented way to view the list of DNS servers within Network Manager's dnsmasq so folks here can watch what is happening without tcpdump, and (2) support for "dhcp- option DNS ..." and "redirect-gateway" on the client (not just options pushed from the server). The first item seems more important and should be much easier. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1211110 Title: network manager openvpn dns push data not updating system DNS addresses To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1211110/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
