Question

Wrong DNS resolving

Hi,

 

I have problems with forticlient and windows 10, with both desktop and win10-store versions.

 

Sample:

 

nslookup test.domain.com Server: domainController1.domain.com Address: 11.11.1.200

 

Non-authoritative answer: Address: 212.2.1.2 Aliases: test.domain.com

The problem is that the names are often resolved using my internal DC (domainController1.domain.com ) instead of my fortinet dns server.

Let's say 70% of the time the correct fortinet dns is used, 30% of the time it fails

 

Can you suggest a solution ?

    Hi

     

    Domain PC will use internal DNS and it is as per your DHCP server setting .By Forticlient will not take care of DNS resolutions .

     

    What exactly are you looking ?

     

    Regds,

    Hi, 

     

    The correct behaviour I see in mac and linux is that when forticlient VPN connection is active, the fortinet DNS server is ALWAYS used bypassing the standard DNS given by the DHCP.
