Hi
I hope that doesn't get posted twice, but it seems my last post vanished somewhere. Well, I just set up OpenVPN, pushing DNS server entries to the client (which are reachable over VPN). That is all fine. But: When a machine connected to OpenVPN tries to browse "
www.somesite.org", that DNS request first goes to the DNS servers listed in the VPN, which can't resolve (as they only resolve internal addresses), and after that fails they go to the external DNS servers defined for the LAN interface. So...initial resoluation for external dns names is quite slow.
Is there a way to prevent that? I don't know, maybe that the client first tries the "non-vpn dns servers" and after that the DNS server inside the VPN network? Would it help if I pushed:
- external DNS
- internal DNS
through for the VPN connection? Instead of only an internal DNS?
Regards
