[Dnsmasq-discuss] No dnsmasq after starting openVPN?!

[Arno Wald]

Hello,

I am using debian/sid (sidux) and did a dist-upgrade today that updated 
dnsmasq to 2.53-1. Now I have the following problem:

After booting the PC and starting pppoe via a DSL-modem manually, the 
internet connection is set up correctly and DNS resolving does work 
using dnsmasq.

When starting openVPN (into let me call it "myofficedomain") breaks the 
DNS resolving. Neither internet nor vpn hostnames can be resolved:

$ host  www.kde.org
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

(also there is no logging of this query in the dnsmasq log (daemon.log)) 
But the connection into the internet is still working (I can ping a 
previously resolved IP-addresses).

After restarting dnsmasq while openvpn is still running everything is 
working again.

I already described the settings here:

[I hope it is ok, if I do not repeat them in this mail? Otherwise I can 
do it in a next reply.]

Does anybody have an idea what I could check or try?

Thanks,
Arno
