    Hi,

    Today I installed the VPN app on another server. Everything looked ready, but I couldn't connect.

    I found the cause: none of the profiles have a DNS address assigned. There is no way to set it
    manually in the VPN settings – it redirects me to the Cloudron dashboard, where there is no such option.

    Is this a bug, or where can I set the DNS for the VPN profiles?

    Thanks!!

      Hello @matix131997
      When you enable the VPN protection in the Cloudron Network settings and chose that specific VPN app, you will no longer be able to configure a custom DNS for that VPN app.

        Fixed it! The problem was the domain assigned to the VPN app: I was using the root domain domain.tld (with my.domain.tld connected to Cloudron). That was only a temporary setup while the app was blocked. Once I switched to a dedicated subdomain, vpn.domain.tld, everything worked.
