Bug Description

When IPv4 Method is set to Automatic VPN, DNS address recieved from OpenVPN server do not update resolv.conf.

This can be achieved when using a standard openvpn config file by adding the lines:

script-security 2
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

In Network-manager there seems to be no option to run connection specific scripts and the DNS data from the server is ignored.

Ubuntu 13.04
Network-manager 0.9.8.0-0ubuntu6
