Bug Description
I have a desktop Precise installation with a normal dnsmasq installed, so I disabled the nm-spawned dnsmasq instance from NetworkManager.
I create a VPN connection in Network Manager without specifying any DNS servers. When I connect to it, I get:
$ cat /var/run/
nameserver 150.140.1.4
nameserver 150.140.1.25
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 194.63.238.4
nameserver 8.8.8.8
I want to ignore the first two entries which are provided by my VPN. So I go to the VPN connection editor and I declare DNS=127.0.0.1. But again I get the same /var/run/
How can I tell Network Manager and/or resolvconf to ignore the DNS servers provided by my VPN connection?
So the VPN connection is set to "addresses only"?
Setting Confirmed/Medium, since this would indeed be a bug in that case.
