+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #146389 +++ Description of problem: NM doesn't create the resolv.conf with a search directive so non-FQDNs don't work. This is quite annoying. Whatever fix was made it does not work for vpnc. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.6.0-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. connect to a vpnc network and get a dhcp address 2. Look into /etc/resolv.conf No search line 3. Actual Results: NM creates a resolv.conf that doesn't have the search domain returned by the DHCP server. Additional info: We should have a place to specify those env variables that are used in the creation of resolv.conf, perhaps in a per-connection basis
Are you sure your VPN concentrator is returning information about the domain name? It's passed to the script in the CISCO_DEF_DOMAIN environment variable. Sometimes administrators don't set this. I think the fix here is to add a Default Domain option to the vpnc config options.
I am adding Dong Hu, our system administrator, so that he can tell you if we have this option set or not. Dong?
