Dns updated with resolv.conf : who did this?

[cookiie]

Hi again…

I modified the /etc/resolv.conf but when I reboot, the file is updated…
I tried with sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf but … > chattr: Operation not supported while reading flags on /etc/resolv.conf.

I search the dhclient.conf to add a line with the new dns but I don’t find it.

How can I (we) do this please?

Please don’t tell me " → search "

Prevent resolv.conf being overwritten

Hi Have Openvpn installed. Getting DNS leaks so had to update my ovpn files with script-security 2 up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf After running openvpn get message /etc/resolvconf/update.d/libc: Warning: /etc/resolv.conf is not a symbolic link to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf I used sudo apt-get install resolv.conf and it works vpn dns correctly in resolv.conf. resolv.conf getting overwritten after awhile with /var/run/connman/resolv.c…

[solved] Sad Smiley after update

Hi. First of all, sorry for my english. Since the last update of osmc, i’m stuck with a sad face after the reboot. I’m using a raspberry Pi 2. Here is mylog file: http://paste.osmc.io/puhivufofe

ConnMan updates /etc/resolv.conf

If you want to set DNS properly, set it via connmanctl or My OSMC -> Network.

[cookiie]

So I need to do : (I don’t have a minihdmi adaptator)

connmanctl services

connmanctl config wifi_b827eb5371d4_2343504c202020202020202020 202020202020202020207c20322e3447487a_managed_psk --nameservers 8.8.8.8

but it doesn’t works

And reboot

This is fixed in the staging repo. You can test it out or wait for next update.

Problem with resolv.conf on NFS root install since march update

Hi Hopefully the issue is now addressed with the following commit: I’d appreciate it if you could test this and provide feedback before we release this as an update to other users. To test this update: Login via the command line Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv jessie-devel main Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot Your system should have have received the update. Please see if…

Thank’s !!

You should use sudo, since you are changing something on the system.

But… There are two parts to this problem:

1. As you found, connman will periodically overwrite changes you make to /etc/resolv.conf. As @the_bo has said, this has been fixed and is waiting to be rolled out. It can also be installed from the staging repo.

2. For any non-local DNS resolvers, connman also adds routing entries that will bypass a VPN tunnel, causing a DNS leak. Sam has produced a patch for this that I am testing. So far, it seems to be working, but has not yet been included in the version in the staging repo.

Once Sam and I are happy that the new patch is ok, I would expect it to be added to the revised version in the staging repo.

AFAIK, this revised version of connman will not alter /etc/resolv.conf to reflect the openvpn server’s push instructions, eg dhcp-option DNS 10.10.10.1 so that you use the VPN’s own DNS resolver. However, I believe the openvpn update-resolv-conf script should now be able to do something similar. But even if you don’t use the VPN’s DNS resolver, all DNS requests should now pass through the VPN tunnel.

Which brings me to one last point. If you intend to use a VPN, you should never use your router as a DNS proxy. Many people have a DHCP set-up where the router assigns a client an IP address, default gateway, DNS server, etc. Very often, the router wil (sensibly)l be assigned as the DNS proxy for the whole network. With a VPN, you need to assign external IP addresses for your DNS resolvers. If your router is the DNS resolver, all DNS requests will bypass the VPN tunnel, causing a DNS leak. The safest way to ensure that you are using external IP addresses is to set your OSMC box to use a fixed IP address.

The openvpn script update-resolv-conf makea use of /sbin/resolvconf which does not seem to be installed. I guess that might need to be re-written to use connmanctl, and I am currently struggling to see how to do that.

As OSMC is systemd based, I also tried update-systemd-resolved (from here), but that failed with the error:

logger: option ‘–id’ doesn’t allow an argument

Which I fixed by simple removing the ="$$" after --id, but then I hit this:

Unknown command ‘call’
update-systemd-resolved.sh[8945]: ‘busctl’ exited with status 1

Here’s hoping the fix mentioned in the NFS issue resolves the DNS update problems.
