Hello all,

I have encountered a DNS resolving issue using MacOS. I cannot access the lab even though with VPN connected (with tun0) and followed [this guide](https://legacy-community.ine.com/t/tip-tricks-for-lab-exams-connections/683), but it doesn’t work on MacOS. One of the issue is the `chattr` command is not found. Using `chflags` as stated [here](https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/chattr-command-not-found-alternatives.2034471/) is not working either. But when I tried in VMware fusion + Kali image, it worked. Any workaround of `chattr` to be used in MacOS? Or perhaps any other workaround to resolve the DNS to access the lab. I tried the restart the network, flush the DNS from browser, and many ways provided in this forum but none of them really works. Because I prefer using bare machine instead of VM. Thank you in advance!

Edit: for the additional information, I’m using MacOS Monterey 12.3.1 on Macbook Pro M1 (ARM architecture).
