openconnect vpn not change resolv.conf from GUI . Fedora 29


I try to connect to the VPN with openvpn. If I connect from the cli with sudo openconnect..... its working fine. The vpn change the /etc/resolv.conf to the desired format.

But If I would connect from the GUI. Settings > Network > VPN it doesn-t change the resolv.conf

The SELinux is in permissive mode


Solution

  • /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf Should contains the following setting

    [main]
    dns=dnsmasq
    

    And everything will goes well. If you want to keep an ability to use internet during you are on vpn. Add the google dns (8.8.8.8) to the vpn settings aswel
