Hi,

Code: Select all

register-dns
that too not working!!

"-assign a random IP to the client"

The IP was what I talking about is by my ISP, which will change after every re-dial(line-drop), so the route's lowest metric will be assigned to this new IP(after re-dial, which makes tap adapter to idle), and further routing will occur through this new lowest metric.

I'm not sure your setup is the same as the original post ; hmmm I'm starting to understand , but I was not expecting this type of problem: why would it be a problem when using hostizzle as a VPN provider that your ISP would give you a new IP address? That's not hostizzle specific and I know for a fact that other people have this working without any problems.

This is a long shot, but try adding

Code: Select all

route-gateway dhcp
to the client config .

Hi JanJust,
Can you please sign-up for a free Hostizzle vpn account and see the real DNS problem ?
Please check the Hostizzle server .conf file. Its providing free service.

That would simplify a lot, about this problem.

Thanks in advance,

http://www.hostizzle.com


Test setup 1:

Environment:
Windows 7(logged in as admin)
Openvpn 2.2 RC2(admin privilage)
Hostizzle Free Vpn Service (.conf file)
Dynamic IP from ISP
{need to put

route-method exe
route-delay 2

in the config file for browsing to start working.
}

Procedure using to connect:
Connect to ISP
Connect Hostizzle
* It will work
Connection re-dial to ISP(automatic re-dial after line-drop, or disconnect and connect modem, so we get new IP for the modem)
- Openvpn will automatically re-connect to Hostizzle server, due to ping-restart 60, pushed[PUSH_REQUEST] settings from Hostizzle.
try to load new page in the browser, :( it wont load!
