This is an issue that has been reported by others and I thought a
patch was posted, but I have been searching my archives and I can't
seem to find it.

I have also seen people report this for OpenVPN as well but since I
don't use either I haven't dug deeply into it to find out if it is a
problem for everyone who uses VPNC or OpenVPN or just isolated issues.

Can someone who uses VPNC or OpenVPN chime in if their resolv.conf is
being updated properly?
