Hostnames not resolving OpenVPN Connect (iOS)

Post by lloyd060 » Wed Jan 30, 2013 2:39 pm

Hi there,

We seem to be having issues with OpenVPN Connect. We can ping our internal IP addresses perfectly fine, but can't seem to resolve hostname/DNS. I've specified the following options within .ovpn file:

Code: Select all

push "dhcp-option DNS x.x.x.x"
push "dhcp-option DOMAIN somedomain.domain"
Any insight would be helpful

Anyone?? I've used the same config on a Windows machine. Works fine. Is this an issue specific to iOS devices??

I have the DNS option specified on the server, and it works for me (i.e. client is pushed the DNS server IP).
