Title: Configuring DNS for Clients

I am trying to configure DNS for my clients. I've tried configuring an upstream server in Query Forwarding and in DNS Servers in the general tab, but to no avail. Can any one please advise on how to do so?

The server your clients should use goes into the DHCP options for the respective interface.

1. Did you specify "force" in the option?
2. Did you wait for the client to renew its lease?
