I've got a problem which is "NetworkManager is not updating /etc/resolv.conf after openvpn connection with dns push configured".
Here's my openvpn server config: (I've changed domain name to ABC.COM for security reason ;))

As you can see it's basicaly sample config with little tuning.
Now..
On my machine (openvpn client), I can see that dns is ok:
{17:12}/etc/NetworkManager ➭ nslookup git.ABC.COM 10.8.0.1
Server: 10.8.0.1
Address: 10.8.0.1#53
Name: git.ABC.COM
Address: 10.8.0.1
{17:18}/etc/NetworkManager ➭ nslookup ABC.COM 10.8.0.1
Server: 10.8.0.1
Address: 10.8.0.1#53
Name: ABC.COM
Address: 18X.XX.XX.71
openvpn logs on server side says (if I understand correctly) that DNS has been pushed:

It looks like everything's fine.
But. I checked /var/log/messages also... and I found that line:
Aug 5 17:14:01 localhost NetworkManager[761]: /sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0: couldn't determine device driver; ignoring...
ip a returns:
5: tun0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 100
link/none
inet 10.8.0.10 peer 10.8.0.9/32 scope global tun0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
route -n returns:

So basically everything works, except the DNS being pushed... Oh! Right, and my /etc/resolv.conf:
# Generated by NetworkManager
domain home
search home
nameserver 10.123.123.1
Where's the issue?
(I have a response from Windows-user with openvpn client, that on his side DNS works fine, so it's an issue on my side.
Ok now I have another response (after I restarted openvpn service on server side) - it's not working.
I must say that it worked yesterday on my machine too.. so have I screwed up something on server? What could it be? )
Edit:
Okay, I've got another Windows-user response (the same user as before) - it's working now. So.. I guess it was caused by openvpn restart and some delays with it. I haven't done anything since then. So we're back onto my machine.
I also traced that that wierd tun0 message appeared also yesterday, and yesterday it worked. Or maybe I added entry to resolv.conf by myself? I don't remember.. (damn it)
Answer
This works for me: http://www.softwarepassion.com/solving-dns-problems-with-openvpn-on-ubuntu-box/
The important step is adding following two lines of configuration into your client openvpn config file:
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
Also ensure the resolvconf package is installed on the client, because that update-resolv-conf script depends on it.
It works with openvpn client service or command to start it manually.
However, the Ubuntu Network Manager doesn't this. It's an issue so far: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvpn/+bug/1211110
