Thanks Joe. There has to be another factor coming into play, as my setup contains "use only for resources on its network".
$ nmcli connection show my-vpn | grep -e ipv4.never-default -e ipv4.dns-priority ipv4.dns-priority: -30 ipv4.never-default: yes Are you able to test this on Ubuntu 19.10? It does not have the patch and in my tests it's consistent with what I observe on the patched 18.04. -- 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/1851407 Title: NetworkManager 1.10.6-2ubuntu1.2 breaks VPN DNS Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: NetworkManager as of 1.10.6-2ubuntu1.2 has cause a regression whereby a VPN connection which sets it's dns-priority to a negative value, which should cause the DNS server supplied by the DNS connection to be placed first, instead now refuses to place the DNS server into the resolver under any circumstance. Pinning the 1.10.6-2ubuntu1.1 works around the issue. I suspect the fix-dns-leak-lp1754671.patch has caused this regression. This patch should be reverted as soon as possible to restore proper functionality of network manager with respect to VPN servers with DNS resolvers. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS Release: 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1851407/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
