ANSWERED Problem connecting by country

Recently when I try to connect to a particular country, I get the following error:

I can connect when I select a specific server. eg Andromeda.

 

Anyone know why this has started happening all of a sudden? I did a TrueCrypt full disk encryption around the time it started, but I can't see how it would cause this...

 

Anyone know to fix?

Hello!

 

The problems is:

 

Wed Sep 11 22:45:30 2013 RESOLVE: Cannot resolve host address: gb.vpn.airdns.org: No such host is known.

 

Your DNS can't resolve that name. For our records, can you tell us which DNS your system is querying?

 

In order to solve the problem radically please re-generate the configuration file(s) in the following way:

 

- tick "Advanced Mode"

- tick "Resolved hosts in .ovpn files"

- tick "All servers for area or region"

 

In this way the Configuration Generator will insert only IP addresses (not names) in the configuration files.

 

Kind regards

Hi, thanks for the answer. I use the following DNS servers: 37.139.10.30 and 195.46.245.59. Is this the information you're looking for? I got them from OpenNIC.

 

Though, I've been using these DNS servers for a while and haven't had this problem. I'll regenerate my config files and see if it goes away.
