        No need to get nasty.

        The font threw me, and the fact that it's a screen shot instead of a copy/paste. We usually get that from Windows users.

          No nasty intent at all, sorry if it came across that way. Was being sincere - I appreciate you taking the time to at least point me in the right direction.

              Your font instincts were pretty good though. I output the netstat results to a file and then opened it in the text editor on my windows machine and when I tried to paste it to the forum the columns were all messed up so I went with a screenshot so it would be easily readable.

                scutil --dns when you are connected to the VPN?

                    So when you're connected to the VPN do both of these work quickly? (one sec)

                    dig @172.20.20.1 www.google.com

                    dig @192.168.20.1 www.google.com

                        Just in case you had a typo I also ran

                        dig @172.20.10.1 www.google.com

                        this responded under 200ms as well.

                          Yeah that was a typo. Sorry. If both name servers respond in the same time frame (200ms is nothing to write home about) then I guess it's not DNS. If you do not NEED the clients to use a DNS server on the other side of the VPN, I don't think I would push it to them.

                          What, specifically, are you seeing?

                            My reason for pushing DNS to the other side is so that I can connect to machines on the other side using the hostnames stored in DNS Resolver and that part works. It's the internet connection that's the problem.

                            The thing that I can't get my head around is where is 172.20.10.1 coming from, as far as I know I didn't set it up.
