Guest Catscrash Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 Hi, where does Android store its DNS-Settings? I managed to establish an openvpn connection, but without being able to change the dns-server that doesn't help much... is there some kind of script that i could execute after establishing the connection? thanks very much Catscrash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest freeasabeer Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 dns settings are in the net.dns1 and net.dns2 property android database. You can use getprop / setprop net.dns1 (and net.dns2) to read and write the dns servers values. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pulser Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 dns settings are in the net.dns1 and net.dns2 property android database. You can use getprop / setprop net.dns1 (and net.dns2) to read and write the dns servers values. I can confirm that this works, but the settings do not 'hold' and are overwritten if the connection is re-established at any point. I haven't as yet been able to find a way to 'lock' the setting, as the DHCP system overwrites the DNS server values every time the phone re-connects to 3G (or refreshes it), making it reset to your network's default. Any ideas where the actual connection is initiated inside the phone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
