Most companies have their own DNS server on the corpnet. In you case, you may just edit the hosts file of the client on network A (source side). The hosts file contains mappings of IP address and FQDN. And it overrides the DNS resolving. Which means that if the requested FQDN matched by an entry in hosts file, the system will not perform the DNS resolving. | |

| Jul 11, 2016 at 16:30 | comment | added | philhevican | Sorry Yes you are correct, I'm trying to access files shares in Network B from Network A which is why I'm using VPN. What would be the correct DNS settings and what modifications would be necessary on the hosts file? Thanks again | |
