I am able establish a openvpn connection - with a openvpn server and multiple clients in different networks. I can ping the between the clients by the ip address but not by the hostnames. Please let me know how this can be done. Any help is appreciated.
Thankyou

I am using a local dns server when not connected to openvpn, and when connected to openvpn server, the openvpn server running dnsmasq will be the dns server. I have "nameserver 10.8.0.1" configured in the openvpn clients /etc/resolv.conf.
Observed that the clients are able to resolve the hostnames only when hostnames are manually configured in /etc/hosts of the openvpn server(as it is the dns server). How do we make the dynamic updates to the hosts file ?
Note : The openvpn clients are across different LANs.

The hostnames are resolved only when they are manually configured in /etc/hosts of openvpn server. Is there a way openvpn server dynamically updates the hosts files so that the hostnames are resolved between the openvpn clients.
Note: Openvpn clients are spread across different LANs.
