Hello All
I have an issue I was hoping someone would be able to assist me with. The main issue is I can't resolve the host name but can ping the IP directly. My setup is I login to my router though openvpn. I use unbound as a recursive resolver and adguard (opnsense plugin) to block ads.  Through the lan I can resolve my local host name but it cannot be found remotely though openvpn. Through the vpn, I can ping the ip which makes me think it is not a firewall issue but a dns issue or an openvpn config issue. The /etc/hosts file has the entry included. Is there a setting to allow this to work? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to figure it out. It was the openvpn config file. I am not sure if I changed a setting by mistake but re-importing my config file worked.
