I had a lot of trouble with NetworkManager+OpenVPN on Ubuntu and
discovered a couple of workarounds.

If you're having trouble resolving internal domain names (like
*.internal.company.com), you might want to try adding something like
this to the [ipv4] section in /etc/NetworkManager/system-
connections/YOUR_VPN_CONNECTION:

    dns-search=internal.company.com;

If you want to direct all DNS lookups through your VPN, try adding

    dns-priority=-1

to the same section. But this will disable all DNS servers except for
the VPN, so if you have a local DNS server, local domain names will stop
resolving.

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 & network-manager 1.10.6-2ubuntu1.

I'll duplicate this message in #1671606.
