search domain and NetworkManager

[Karl Auer]

I've just got a vpnc VPN going with a Palo Alto firewall, and
everything is working very well. Except that I cannot get Network
Manager to add a search domain to resolv.conf when the VPN comes up.

I have added the desired domain to the "Additional Search Domains"
field in the NetworkManager configuration for the VPN, but it seems to
be ignoring it completely. It DOES add any "Additional DNS Servers" I
specify, so it's not permissions, and it IS paying attention to at
least part of that dialogue.

Googling turns up similar but not-quite-right issues, such as NM
replacing rather than appending to a search domain list.

Regards, K.
