[Bug 1778946] Re: No dns resolution after closing a vpn/pptp connection

[Will Cooke]

Sorry for the delay here.

Is this what you were interested in @cyphermox?

While VPN is up:

$ ls -lha /run/systemd/resolve/
total 16K
drwxr-xr-x  3 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve 140 Nov 28 12:29 .
drwxr-xr-x 20 root            root            460 Nov 28 12:28 ..
drwx------  2 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve  80 Nov 28 12:29 netif
-rw-r--r--  1 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve 647 Nov 28 12:29 resolv.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve 712 Nov 28 12:29 stub-resolv.conf
-rw-------  1 root            root            712 Nov 28 12:27 stub-resolv.conf.pppd-backup.ppp0
-rw-r--r--  1 root            root            728 Nov 28 12:29 stub-resolv.conf.tmp


After VPN is closed:


$ ls -lha /run/systemd/resolve/
total 12K
drwxr-xr-x  3 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve 120 Nov 28 12:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 20 root            root            460 Nov 28 12:28 ..
drwx------  2 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve  60 Nov 28 12:32 netif
-rw-r--r--  1 systemd-resolve systemd-resolve 647 Nov 28 12:32 resolv.conf
-rw-------  1 root            root            712 Nov 28 12:27 stub-resolv.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root            root            728 Nov 28 12:29 stub-resolv.conf.tmp


Attached are the files after the VPN is shutdown.

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ppp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in resolvconf package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  step to reproduce

  set a VPN connection configured to connect a Microsoft vpn server
  (pptp)

  internet acces is ok

  enable the vpn connection using the applet on the top right corner of
  the desktop

  internet still ok
  ping works

  disable the vpn connection

  ping doesn't works with a host but works if i specify an ip address

  ping: xx.net: Nom ou service inconnu

  As a workaround, i disable the ethernet link and re-enable it

  name resolution is now ok
