Issue with DNS resolving over IPSEC
-
i have a VPN tunnel setup between two sites. i can ping hosts on either side by IP address, but can't ping via hostname and/or hostname.domain.
one of my devices is a NAS box, with an ip of 192.168.1.254 and the pfsense domain name is home, this resides at site a. when i ping nas.home on a site b computer, i don't get any replies. when i ping 192.168.1.254, i get replies.
on the site b pfsense box, i added a static entry for the nas, .254 device at site a, and if i try my pings again it resolves. this is great, but i don't want to create static entries for all my devices at site a. i figured the domain override section under DNS forwarders would work, but it didn't.
i do have a static route on each pfsense box pointing to the respective remote networks, i did a search on the forums and that was something that worked for another person who had this issue. unfortunately for me, that thread was only a few posts long due to a quick solution (good for the person who was having the problem).
thanks
edit- should i have posted this in IPSEC instead?
