Fixing dns leaks
Posted: Sat Apr 04, 2020 5:45 am
Hello. I have been playing around with Softether vpn for a while now and I have noticed that dns leaks occur when connecting to the vpn server using the softether vpn client manager. This is DNS with no vpn connection:

This is DNS with vpn connection using the softether vpn connection manager:

I have tried several different configurations, but the only way that I was able to prevent dns leaks from occurring was by exporting a openvpn config file and modifying it to include the "block-outside-dns" configuration. Is there a way to configure the softether vpn client manager/server to force all traffic, like dns requests, through the vpn connection?
