Debian Jessy, DNS leaking with Airvpnclient

[TuxiePuxie 0]

Debian 8.0 Jessy with AirVPNclient  2.10.3

 

When testing my DNS on several website like ipleak.net or https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc/services/dnsentropy i see that the DNS servers of my provider are showing. Also on http://ipv6leak.com/ i can see that my IPV6 is leaking.

 

At first i changed resolv.conf with the AirVPN servers 10.4.0.1 and 10.5.0.1 and apart from the IPv6 still leaking, the DNS wasn't leaking anymore. but as soon i start the client or change a server in the client it's back to: nameserver fe80::1%eth0 which i don't understand.

 

In the Client several options are set to
Expert mode

Check if the tunnel effectively works

IPv6 disabled

 

The DNS switch mode is on automatic

Check if the tunnel uses AirVPN DNS is set.

 

It doesn't matter if i fill the DNS serverlist with the AirVPN DNS servers or leave it blank the leaking problem remains.

I would suggest to use "DNS switch mode" as "Renaming (Linux only)" - I use it myself and I'm on Debian Jessie as well (Linux Mint Debian Edition 2, codename "Betsy"). In my case it helps.

Hello,

 

Have you tried this:

 

Disable WebRTC in Firefox

    WebRTC in  Firefox/Iceweasel.

    To disable WebRTC in Firefox, go to about:config and toggle media.peerconnection.enabled to false.

 

Your dns woulnt leak anymore.

Linux not affected.  That is a windows problem.

 

 

I use Debian Jessie and "Linux renaming" is what I set too.  Never ever have any dns issues.

indeed, your right iwih2gk

 

TuxiePuxie, Have you tried other dns servers, for exemple OpenNIC in the DNS serverlist and uncheck: Check if the tunnel uses AirVPN DNS
