It seems that ubuntu 12.04 is ignoring the directive in the VPN configuration "Automatic (VPN) addresses only". As I understand (and how it worked before), this option means you don't pull the DNS config if this is selected.
I have tried disabling dnsmasq as per (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1968061)... but I'm stilling getting the VPN's nameserver in the /etc/resolve.conf file.
My scenario is I'm VPN to my home network from work, and I want to access my local devices, but I don't need to browse the web or look up any dns through it.
This worked fine before, but now all my DNS requests are taking ages whenever I'm connected to VPN.
