OpenVPN Domain Search Suffix

[Ryan Ayers <rayers public dividia net>]

I am new to this list.  I developed a patch to add support for the dhcp-option DOMAIN to the OpenVPN plugin for NetworkManager.  I'm not sure if this is the right list to submit this patch.  I run Fedora and when I bring up a VPN connection to my office network, then DHCP server is configured to send a DNS server and a DOMAIN search suffix.  However, NetworkManager just erases /etc/resolv.conf and places the correct nameserver line, but does not add a "search" line.  The attached patch resolves the issue for me.  I run Fedora and this patch is against the latest package for F8.

If I should send this patch to Fedora Bugzilla instead of this list, just let me know.

Thanks,
Ryan
