[Bug 1003842] Re: dnsmasq sometimes fails to resolve private names in networks with non-equivalent nameservers

[Steve Riley]

I started using my employer's OpenVPN today and encountered name
resolution problems. From my research, this here bug appears to be
plaguing me, as well (I'm on 12.10). Commenting the line dns=dnsmasq in
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf does fix the problem. However,
_all_ DNS is routed out the VPN in this case. I rather like the idea of
splitting the DNS responsibilities.

I see there's still the unresolved question of whether re-enabling
--strict-order will suffice as a workaround, since 12.10 relies on DBus
to populate the nameservers. Is there any extra information on this?
