Still getting DNS leaks with Network Lock and renaming mode (Linux)

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm using the GUI on my ubuntu linux machine. I've got the Network Lock on, and I've tried both "renaming" and "resolveconf" DNS modes, and I'm still getting DNS leaks.

 

When I run a test at https://www.dnsleaktest.com I get at least one of my ISP's servers showing up, under the AirVPN one.

 

Do I got no alternative but to sort it out in my firewall settings?

If you use AirVPN from terminal or Networkmanager, you could add this to your .ovpn files:

First, verify if resolvconf is installed

 

Add:

 

script-security 2\nup /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf\ndown /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
 

or do

 

 

for filename in *.ovpn; do  echo -e "script-security 2\nup /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf\ndown /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf" >> $filename; done
 

in the folder you have .ovpn files

Hello!

 

There are no DNS leaks on Linux. Even if your system queries your ISP DNS, the queries are tunneled and ISP nameservers see them coming from our VPN servers... assuming that the VPN connection is really working, though.

 

Complete client logs and content of /etc/resolv.conf while the system is in the VPN could provide clues.

 

Kind regards
