On: DNSCrypt – A protocol to improve DNS security

[snowpanda]

When you use a VPN (OpenVPN) is there still a way to use DNSCrypt? My VPN provider seems to force their own DNS. Tried OpenVPN config manual pages to no help.

Manually updating you network settings after connecting will do the trick.

Use --script-security and --up if you'd like to script the DNS update and have it run everytime after you connect

You need to upgrade to OpenVPN v 4.0 or greater. Then investigate the option string below:

pull-filter ignore "dhcp-option DNS"

Correction: 2.4.0 or greater.
