The silence regarding this problem is a bit disconcerting. After jumping through many hoops, I managed to resolve this with the help of this answer: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/weird-dns-issue-over-vpn/78092/11
I deleted the /etc/resolv.conf symlink and disabled systemd-resolved as instructed, then rebooted. After start up, NetworkManager re-created a file at /etc/resolv.conf (not a symlink this time). Although I could connect to the Internet, I coulnd't access any website. I inferred some DNS issues and I simply re-enabled systemd-resolved. $ sudo systemctl enable systemd-resolved.service I recreated the symlink pointing /etc/resolv.conf to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf $ sudo ln -s /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf then I rebooted once again. Next time I connected to the VPN, I could access its resources with no further issues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1688018 Title: DNS server from vpn connection is not being used after network-manager upgrade to 1.2.6 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1688018/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
