Client connection issue DNS related

Post by rob_k » Fri Jun 23, 2017 2:29 pm

Hi All,

I am wondering if anyone has run into this. Som of my users report issues connecting on different networks. the error on the client side is:

DNS lookup failed on host
u'vpn.xxxx.xxxx.xxx':[Errno 8] nodename nor

The same user will not have any issues in other locations. Also, changing their DNS entry to point directly to our own in house DNS server, circumvents the issue. Any one know what is happening? Any information is greatly appreciated.
