I have two m0n0wall's setup with a vpn connecting the two. This is up and running just fine. What I would like to do, using DNS forwarder, is set the authoritative DNS server for a specific domain This DNS server would be a machine that is on the other side of the VPN Tunnel. What I think is happening is that m0n0wall cannot access the server because it can't reach that server because it doesn't know how to route that DNS request through the vpn. However from a client connected to that very m0n0wall I can ping the server just fine. In other words I think it's sending the request directly out of the WAN port and not thought the LAN port which would then direct it over the vpn tunnel. What I am trying to do is have a few of my clients connect to my windows domain on the other side of the tunnel. What I have done in the past is set the primary dns server on the workstations to the domain dns server on the other side of the tunnel. That works, but if the tunnel goes down they they cannot browse the internet because all of the dns query's cannot reach the dns server one on the other side. I could set the secondary dns server on the workstations, but I have seen windows jump to the secondary dns server to quickly sometimes and that also causes problems. So if I could just tell m0n0wall to send all domain related queries to the domain dns server and use my ISP's dns server for everything else I could have my cake and eat it to. I hope this makes sense. If anyone has another suggestion on how I should to this let kindly let me know. Thanks, Mat Murdock |
