Tunnel DNS requests?

Hello,
Currently, DNS requests are not being tunneled. Is there a way to tunnel DNS requests as well?
For OpenVPN, one usually would use 'dnsmasq' to accomplish this together with these options in OpenVPN
push "redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp"
push "dhcp-option DNS 10.8.0.9"
Thanks.

Nothing prevents DNS queries over a VPN fundamentally.
Please try to change DNS setting of your OS.

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it!
Do you mean I should change the settings of the VPN Tunnel Adapter in the Network Center in Windows, and change the DNS to the IP of the server running SoftEther?

I think so.
But I don't know much about OpenVPN client.

Hello
In our country they check our dns requests and for some servers like facebook, it resolves with a local IP like 10.10.32.32!!!!
So I should force my connection to send its dns requests through vpn.
Most of times It do throgh vpn but sometimes not! But Why?
I tried to disable dns cache but sometimes still have this problem.
Im using NAT.

How can I tunnel DNS requests using the SoftEther Client?
What changes do I need to make? I cannot find this :(
Thanks

I've already done that but SoftEther VPN Client keeps using the DNS servers of my LOCAL network. I want it to use the DNS server of my server runnign SoftEther Server. Now my local network administrator can see my DNS requests and block them!

What OS are you using as client?
Is the default gateway of your PC on the virtual network adapter of the VPN?
