Yes, full mode works fine. The DNS lookups go to the VPN server with no timeouts even on non-fully qualified names. Maybe that's my best solution. It's slightly sub-optimal because sometimes I connect to different VPNs simultaneously that have different split domains but that's more of a convenience...

Eric, Thanks for the reply but that explanation doesn't make sense. This means the lookup is correctly going to your split DNS server first with the domain www.sparklabs.com.madole.local, which nslookup will eventually give up on and resolve www.sparklabs.com instead. It does tell us though that you...

Hi Eric, Sure, here you go. C:\Users\david>nslookup www.sparklabs.com DNS request timed out. timeout was 2 seconds. Server: UnKnown Address: fd53:7061:726b:4c61:6273:5669:7344:4e56 DNS request timed out. timeout was 2 seconds. DNS request timed out. timeout was 2 seconds. Non-authoritative answer: N...

Hi Eric, Thank you. The client offered to install beta 7 today so I tried that and I am still seeing the same effect. Here is the DNS info from the log that you requested: Apr 22 12:16:38 PM: DNS set to Split, report follows: Server - 192.168.1.13:53; Lookup Type - Split; Domains - zzz.local. Server...

I am having a problem with long DNS lookups when connected to VPN and using the Viscosity DNS system. It appears that the problem is that Viscosity is trying to first lookup to the DNS server for the connection which the default route is not pointing to, and that server being unreachable since it is...

I got a chance to try this process and it ended up solving the problem. I am thinking maybe deleting the Viscosity folder before reinstalling did it, as I had tried reinstalling from the website and rebooting already. Not really sure, but it's working again. Thank you.

Yes, it does.

None of those cloud services, or AnyConnect, are running when this occurs. I have very few background tasks running, pretty much just the Microsoft standard ones. One thing I tried: disabling notifications in Windows though the "notifications & actions" settings; still freezes the task...

Nothing in the event log except a couple of DNS client events which look to be expected.

I have the Cisco AnyConnect client which uses notification tiles, the updater for my Nvidia video driver does also. Those do not cause the taskbar to lock. I don't have any apps that customize any appearance. I do have three monitors with the taskbar across all three but that is all through the nati...
