When you connect via vpnc, it asks the remote network for name servers<br>and if it gets any, it backs up the current resolv.conf file<br>(presumably to /var/run/vpnc/resolv.conf-backup) and replaces it with<br>the info it received from the VPN network. The original file is<br>
restored when the daemon is terminated (usually by running<br>vpnc-disconnect). This is why resetting your machine leaves your<br>connection broken. I believe you can configure vpnc to not use remote<br>DNS info if you desire.<br>
