Hello

we like to set for all VPN users a "prefered" internal DNS-server to
resolve internal addresses and external ones. Unfortunately it seems
that after bringing up the VPN still the DNS server assigned to the
Windows LAN Interface is used. This is especially annoying with provider
which lie about non-existing domains to redirect to some search page.

Details:

Client OS Windows XP-SP3 with ShrewSoft VPN Client 2.1.6 and a virtual
interface with manual assigned IP address and DNS server. No Split DNS
or search suffix set. Name resolution by hand works fine across the
tunnel but as said the DNS server assigned by DHCP to the Windows LAN
Interface is used first.

Any chance to get the VPN DNS Server as prefered??


Hi Andreas,

How do you have DNS configured on the client OS? Is "Append primary
and connection specific DNS suffixes" or "Append these DNS suffixes (
in order )" selected under the advanced TCP/IP settings DNS tab?

-Matthew

The "Append primary and connection specific DNS suffixes" are set
(default) but are all empty. The "Append these DNS suffixes" is
unchecked. The LAN interface is set by DHCP from a ADSL Router
(default-gw, DNS-proxy) with the NS point to the router device which in
turn does NS lookups against the NS assigned from the DSL Provider.


Andreas,

Are you able to resolve DNS names that can only be resolved via the tunnel specific DNS server? If so, what leads you to believe that the system is resolving DNS names using the adapters default DNS server?

-Matthew
