Remote DNS not properly forwarded #4

Closed georgh- closed 5 years ago

georgh- commented 5 years ago

I can successfully establish connections between my Android phone and my server using the Cloak plugin. I see active connections on the server and applications work.

However, if I enable remote DNS resolution, then it stops working (DNS resolution, it looks like traffic is still forwarded to IPs). I haven't tried any other plugins, so not sure if this could be related to shadowsocks app instead of cloak plugin.

I have tried to get more detailed logs using adb-logcat without success.

I also have checked the ck-server logs, nothing special is logged.

No problems when using ss-client from a laptop.

ss-server shadowsocks-libev 3.1.3 ck-server 1.1.1 android shadowsocks from Google play 4.7.4 cloak plugin apk downloaded from github 1.0.0 Phone Oneplus 6 Android version 9 Oxygen OS beta 21

Do you mean Send DNS over UDP? Cloak doesn't support UDP so this feature can't be used

Understood, thanks for your response!

I realized that the Russian translation of Shadowsocks uses "DNS redirection" (Перенаправление DNS) instead of the correct text "Send DNS over UDP".

Therefore I was mistaken thinking that this setting had to be enabled to have remote DNS.
