I'm using the official Mac GUI client (version 0.0.20190409) and am
having troubles with DNS after connection. I use a local DNS resolver,
so I have my DNS manually set to 127.0.0.1 on the network interface:
$ scutil --dns | grep scoped -A50
DNS configuration (for scoped queries)
resolver #1
nameserver[0] : 127.0.0.1
if_index : 8 (en0)
flags : Scoped, Request A records, Request AAAA records
reach : 0x00030002 (Reachable,Local Address,Directly Reachable Address)
Once I activate a Wireguard tunnel, the resolvers are updated to the
IP of my Wireguard server:
$ scutil --dns | grep scoped -A50
DNS configuration (for scoped queries)
resolver #1
nameserver[0] : 10.0.77.1
if_index : 8 (en0)
flags : Scoped, Request A records
reach : 0x00000002 (Reachable)
resolver #2
nameserver[0] : 10.0.77.1
if_index : 19 (utun2)
flags : Scoped, Request A records
reach : 0x00000003 (Reachable,Transient Connection)
Setting `DNS = 127.0.0.1` on the [Interface] section for my client has
no effect.
How can I activate the tunnel, but keep my DNS resolver as 127.0.0.1?
