Hi community,
I was setting up piVPN in combination with pi-hole. openVPN settings (see below) will push my pi-hole dns server to the client (192.168.188.56). My android device connects successfully to the server but the dns push seems to fail. There are two reasons why I think so: in a termux session I do a dig google.de and the response tell me SERVER 8.8.8.8. second reason is that the pi-hole web admin does not see any hits on it's dns server. On the android client I see the protocol saying
...
[dhcp-options] [DNS] [192.168.188.56]
...
so I assume that the server setting itself is correct. Does anybody has a clue whats wrong here?
