flush-dns flag in GlobalProtect registry resets to "no"

L3 Networker

I'm currently having an issue with users having to do "ipconfig /flushdns" in order to gain access to certain network resources when connecting to VPN.

 

There is a registry entry called "flush-dns" located under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palo Alto Networks\GlobalProtect\Settings which I thought I could use in order to have the client perform a DNS flush each time it changes gateway.

This is described in this guide: https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/documentation/62/globalprotect/globalprotect-admin-guide/set-up-the...

 

When set to "yes" it automaticly reverts to "no" when the client is connected.

Is the proper registry name flushdns or flush-dns? Is this supposed to still work with GlobalProtect 3.x?
