I've setup my Asus RT-N66U router as an openVPN server. I'm able to connect using the Tunnelblick openVPN client for Mac. However, I can't find a way to automatically set the DNS server after establishing a VPN connection. I've read many posts but haven't found anything specific for my configuration. I've set my router (VPN server) to push the LAN to clients. I've tried all the Tunnelblick options for Set DNS/WINS (set nameserver, 3.1, 3.0b10, alternate 1). Nothing works. When I manually change my connection to use my router IP address as the name server, domain name resolution works. But doing this manually every time is a nuisance. Surely someone has figured this out?
My router is a DHCP client of my ISP server, getting a dynamic IP address and DNS servers from my ISP. I was thinking the best setting would be to "push" the DNS servers specified by my ISP to my remote client. When I manually set the remote (client) DNS server I just specify the IP address of my router and that works.
