      Hello,

      We've just upgraded our in-office firewalls to 2.3.5 and we've found that clients using ShrewsoftVPN no longer have
      a working DNS suffix provided to them.

      I've run the shrewsoft tracetool on the clients and I can see a difference in the attributes that are pulled:

      Working (2.2.6)

      
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : received config pull response
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - IP4 Address = 192.168.254.2
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - IP4 DNS Server = 10.3.0.10
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - IP4 DNS Server = 10.3.0.11
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - Unkown VARIABLE 13 = 8 bytes
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - DNS Suffix = ourdomain.internal
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - Split Domain
      18/04/12 16:04:22 ii : - IP4 Split Network Include = ANY:10.3.0.0/24:*
      
      

      Not Working (2.3.5)

      
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : received config pull response
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - IP4 Address = 192.168.2545.2
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - IP4 DNS Server = 10.3.0.10
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - IP4 DNS Server = 10.3.0.11
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - IP4 Subnet = ANY:10.3.0.0/24:*
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - Unkown VARIABLE 28676 = 8 bytes
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - Unkown VARIABLE 28674 = 18 bytes
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - Unkown VARIABLE 28675 = 18 bytes
      18/04/12 16:00:52 ii : - Unkown VARIABLE 28673 = 1 bytes
      
      

      I've looked at the config files in /var/etc/ipsec/strongswan.conf between both versions and they both have:

      
              plugins {
                      attr {
                              dns = 10.3.0.10,10.3.0.11
                              subnet = 10.3.0.0/24
                              split-include = 10.3.0.0/24
                              # Search domain and default domain
                              28674 = "ourdomain.internal"
                              28675 = "ourdomain.internal"
                      }
      
      

      This is with the same version of shrewsoft etc, the only difference is the version of PFSense.

      Any thoughts?

      Thanks,
      Rob
