Here is the ugly workaround I use that has the advantage of working all the time (I'm on a network where the DHCP lease time is around 10 minutes as part of the authentication system). You'll of course want to replace the name (office.fsf.org) and and address (192.168.0.25) of my private-network name servers with yours , and change the .in-addr.arpa lines to be your private network ranges. === Try at fixing PITA DHCP Lease Renewal breaks DNS problem === See also the Ubuntu bug [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dhcp3/+bug/90681/ resolv.conf overwritten using VPN/PPP etc..] * replace network-manager with [http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php wicd] * aptitude install dnsmasq * remove the lines beginning with "script-security", "up", and "down" from /etc/openvpn/client.conf * Set /etc/resolv.conf to always point to the dnsmasq name server: rm /etc/resolv.conf echo nameserver 127.0.0.1 > /etc/resolv.conf chmod 444 /etc/resolv.conf chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf * Make one of these your /etc/dnsmasq.conf file: <pre> # # /etc/dnsmasq.conf minimal version # resolv-file=/etc/resolv.conf.dhclient-new server=/0.168.192.in-addr.arpa/192.168.0.25 server=/0.16.172.in-addr.arpa/192.168.0.25 server=/office.fsf.org/192.168.0.25 </pre> -- Daniel JB Clark | Sys Admin, Free Software Foundation pobox.com/~dclark | http://www.fsf.org/about/staff#danny -- resolv.conf overwritten using VPN/PPP etc... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/90681 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
