Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Occasionally, new 3G connections don't get their nameserver details written into /etc/resolv.conf. The details are written to /etc/ppp/
I am using a fairly complicated NetworkManager setup. I've created a wifi network and am then connecting to the net over 3G, so that the rest of the family can surf the net over my connection. I've noticed that /etc/resolv.conf is often *not* updated when the 3G connection is established, though /etc/ppp/
In syslog I see PPP invoked with a comment like this:
Dec 25 12:33:32 mark-xps-m1330 NetworkManager: <debug> [1261744412.117579] nm_ppp_
My /etc/ppp/options includes the ipcp-accept-local option, if that's relevant.
I'm seeing this with a standard network-manager setup on kubuntu 9.10, too, using a UMTS-Modem.
