      Hello, I was in doubt to post this in the DNS or OpenVPN server, so I created it here

      My problem is, I can ping remote openvpn clients by ip, but cant resolve the hostnames, how can I do this?? I am using DNS Forwarder

        Do the OpenVPN clients use pfsense as its DNS server ?

              OpenVPN clients don't register their hostnames in DNS.
