Hi,

Could you please explain your setup little bit like :

  1. What is the Operating System of your VM ?

  2. whether your VM is domain joined or standalone VM?

  3. Where you have configured this forwarder ?

  4. is that port no 53 is allowed between your VM and DNS server ?

  5. What kind of DNS server you are using MS DNS or some DNS appliance ?

Also I could see another blog post where same type of issue was discussed. So mentioning the link below. You can check those answers as well.

Hi，
Set as follows：

  1. VM uses Windows 2016

  2. The vm is added to the domain, but the domain name is not in the domain, it is a separate domain name, for example: the domain is: 123.com, the domain name is: abc.com

  3. The forwarder is configured in the windows dns service

  4. Open tcp / udp 53 between vm and DNS server

Thanks & Regards,
