<t>I just purchased NordVPN Service for all my different computers. <br/>
I am running Linux Mint 18.3 32bit on an older Dell Vostros220 Machine. I got the DNS leaks fixed through “Bind9”, but I was leaking IPv6 data when I did (ipleak.net) tests. NordVPN over chat sent me this link:

Everything works now and I’m not leaking anything. NordVPN has been super fast to respond and they helped get me up and going. Love it so far.

Re: (Solved) NordVPN IPv6 persistent leaks
You can decrease the risk of a leak further by editing the Nord opvn files and adding
block-outside-dns
anywhere where the options are listed. For example:Code: Select all
...
ping-timer-rem
reneg-sec 0
explicit-exit-notify 3
block-outside-dns
remote-cert-tls server
#mute 10000
auth-user-pass
comp-lzo
...

Thank you. I appreciate the info. I’m a Linux noob.

--block-outside-dns is a Windows only option.

I gloomily came to the ironic conclusion that if you take a highly intelligent person and give them the best possible, elite education, then you will most likely wind up with an academic who is completely impervious to reality.

Probably someone did not test before advising.
