Hi Openziti Team,  
I have been testing the Ziti Desktop Edge for Mac and have a couple of questions:

1. I could not find the location of the logs on Ziti Desktop Edge for Mac.
2. Why are my DNS resolvers not being updated even though the tunneler is running and enabled?

Currently, to get these resolvers working, I need to turn off "Intercept DNS matching by domain" and then turn it back on again (see the attached image for reference).

You can access the logs from the menubar under `Logging/Packet Tunnel...`. You can also find them in `~/Library/Group\ Containers/MN5S649TXM.ZitiPacketTunnel.group/logs/`

Toggling will cause a DNS flush. Do you have any potentially conflicting software running (e.g., a VPN client, Ant-virus software)?

Also - are you running the latest version (`2.47`)?

Hi Reinhard - welcome to the community!

The responses above were related to the post from @ayushhsinghh and the macOS Desktop Edge. did you mean to reply to a different post relating to Windows Desktop Edge? @TheLumberjack should be able to help with the WDE DNS question.
