Knot resolver warning: "/etc/resolv.conf.vpn.*: file not found"

Hi.

When I reload kresd (/etc/init.d/kresd reload) I always get this warning: “/etc/resolv.conf.vpn.*: file not found”.
Why is knot resolver complaining about a vpn config file? BTW, kresd reloads despite the warning.
Sometimes I get DNS leaks when my openvpn client is running. Could this be related?
Any hint on the way forward?

Update: I resolved this issue by creating a symbolic link to my vpn provider configuration (resolv.conf.vpn.ExpressVPN)

Thanks

That conf file is not regular OpenVPN config file, that one is config for resolver (in this case dedicated for vpn network/interfaces). Depending on your vpn setup you might need it.

In my case i do not have it present as file and also i did not find it in any UCI config. So look around /etc/config/resolver , /etc/config/dhcp there might be entry related to that resolv.conf.vpn file :slight_smile:

Also i think that resolver service is /etc/init.d/resolver and that should dispatch kresd or any other resolver you might have configured as preffered resolver in /etc/config/resolver
