      Hello

      I am new user of PFSense and have the following problems.

      Have 6 users who are using vpn to connect from their homes to the network. VPN connections work, but when connecting to servers they do not resolve the fqdn and must connect only by IP.

      I have created in PFSense - Services - DNS Resolver the list of servers with their name, domain and IP but the problem persists and not can resolve the issue.

      I have looked for how to solve it but I could not find a solution.

      PFSense is only used for VPN sessions.

      Thanks for your comments.

      Regards

      Sebastian

        What DNS server are they using?

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          Unbound ACL's ?

          I had to add my OpenVPN ranges as "allow"

            exactly - out of the box unbound does not allow vpn users to query it.. If you want your vpn users to be able to query unbound, you have to create a ACL to allow that. Per the example posted by @bingo600
