Access local services when using VPN (AirVPN)
Access local services when using VPN (AirVPN)
Hey guys,
I have some services running on home server (not exposed) and I also have AirVPN subscription. I'm trying to use AirVPN (for browsing) on my PC running POP OS with their app called Eddie, but once I connect to VPN server I cant reach my local services using custom DNS records. So I have to type http://IP:PORT or disable VPN to access it.
I have pihole with custom DNS Records that points to NPM on the same host.
I understand that VPN cant resolve my local DNS, but is there any solution to use both at the same time?
Edit: I do have static local IP set with custom DNS (server IP)
There is an option within Eddie to enable local access, did you check the box? Or are you not using Eddie?
I did try that, didn't work. But your post made me check again and I figured there is also settings button and I disabled DNS Switch mode and its perfect now. Thank you
