Set /etc/resolv.conf to the local dnsmasq (nameserver 127.0.0.1)<br>
Set openvpn to store its information to /etc/resolv.conf.vpn<br>
Tell dnsmasq to read the server list from /etc/resolv.conf.vpn<br>

That won't cut it, as openvpn will overwrite your local DNS servers with the one provided by the remote network, and you'll again be cut off from the local domains. You need to also add the --server directive statically, or set dynamically via openresolv.</blockquote>
<div><br>It may not be a complete solution if there are other local name servers besides dnsmasq, but it is a necessary starting point, or else resolution won't use dnsmasq at all (as the nameserver 127.0.0.1 directive gets overwritten if openvpn or dhcpcd is allowed to write to /etc/resolv.conf)<br>
