DNS over VPN (PPTP)

Sun Jul 27, 2014 3:11 pm

Hi Guys, I'm setting up a VPN for my office and I'm having a problem with the DNS Server.
I want to use the DNS Server to map the names of the servers in the network but in my local network I have setup a DNS Suffix (something.local) so that the DNS will work inside the network. But the PPTP server doesen't allow me to automatically set this up (dns suffix I mean).

Is there any way that I can set a entry for a computer without having the DNS suffix? When I only set the name of the server (without something.local) in the local network I get Non-Authoritive Response.

Is there anyway I can make this work?


I currently have a someting like this:

serverA.something.local IP ADDRESS

I have tried this:

serverA IP ADDRESS

but I can't ping the server

I don't think it is possible to set on Mikrotik. You have to do it on the clients.
Powershell:
Set-VPNConnection -Name "Your-Connection" -DNSSuffix "something.local"
