Using Hardy on AMD64. To me it looks as though the DNS handling of kvpnc (or openvpn?), NetworkManager and resolvconf do not really go well together.
Case 1: kvpnc, openvpn, NetworkManager, but NO resolvconf: I can open a VPN connection and everything works fine for some minutes. After some minutes, however, /etc/resolv.conf is overwritten by the default nameserver (I assume by NetworkManager), so that the VPN nameservice doesn't wokr anymore. Case 2: kvpnc, openvpn, NetworkManager and resolvconf: NetworkManager uses resolvconf (by way of the ifup-scripts, if I'm not mistaken), however kvpnc does not - it simply overwrites /etc/resolv.conf and saves a copy of the old one. When /etc/resolv.conf is reinstalled by kvpnc after the VPN has been disconnected, it copies the old version of resolv.conf over the kvpnc-version. However, as resolvconf requires a symbolic link, this will destroy the functionality of resolvconf... Does anybody know how to get kvpnc to use resolvconf? That would probably be the best solution... -- kvpnc: wrong modification of resolv.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148555 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
