Bug description:
  I use my company's cisco vpn via network-manager in Ubuntu 16.04.2
  LTS. After recent upgrade of network-manager:amd64 from version
  1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.4 to version 1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 DNS
  resolution of VPN's server hostnames does not work. Roll back to
  version 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.4 solves the problem.

  Steps for reproducing:
  1. upgrade network-manager:amd64 from version 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.4 to version 1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
  2. connect to VPN via network-manager applet
  3. nslookop servername.internal --> ** server can't find servername.internal: NXDOMAIN
  4. disconnect from VPN via network-manager applet
  5. roll back network-manager via command: sudo apt-get install network-manager=1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.4
  6. restart network-manager via sudo service network-manager restart
  7. connect to VPN via network-manager applet
  8. nslookop servername.internal --> the server is resolved correctly
