Cannot resolve VPN server address
Posted: Tue Apr 07, 2020 6:21 pm
Hi, I'm having an issue with Viscosity client.
I have a Pritunl server configured, and I'm able to connect using Pritunl or OpenVPN clients.
However, if I try the same profile on Viscosity, I get a DNS resolution error
My server's DNS is public and available, is not misspelled (I use the same profile on other clients) and DNS resolution in general works fine on my system (I can ping, dig, netcat to this address or others).
Do you guys have an idea of what might be happening? Thanks a lot!
