[Bug 396387] Re: Unable to resolve VPN names AND connect to the Internet

[Eeqmcsq]

Without connecting via VPN, my work domain "svl.access-company.com" is
still not resolvable by the sbcglobal's DNS servers. And yes, they are
returning NXDOMAIN.

~$ nslookup svl.access-company.com
Server:		68.94.156.1
Address:	68.94.156.1#53

** server can't find svl.access-company.com: NXDOMAIN

============
But what I don't understand is why this all worked in 8.10 and not 9.04. So I fired up an ubuntu64 8.10 live CD I had lying around and created my work VPN connection. After a few tests, I see that the difference is in /etc/resolv.conf. See the attached file for the results.

So I think the cause of my original bug is that in 9.04, my work DNS
servers were placed AFTER my sbcglobal.net DNS servers, whereas in 8.10,
they were placed BEFORE my sbcglobal.net DNS servers. Also, I don't
understand why there is now a differently formatted resolv.conf on my
ubuntu64 PC. Any ideas?
