      Hi,

      I am running several server on my local network and each has an FQDN assigned by pfsense. When I try to connect to those server locally, everything works fine using "server.myhomenet". Sadly this is not possible, when I connect over OpenVPN (although using the IP works).

      What can I do to get this working?

      I have my configuration attached:

      kind regards rubarb

        I have an entry in custom options. Works for me.

        push "dhcp-option DOMAIN myhomenet"

        Also I have checked Provide a default domain name to clients and specified the DNS Default domain as myhomenet

          Thanks for the advice, I tried it.

          It only works once, after that I need to use IPs again.  :-\
