Parallels Desktop does not currently support DNS over TCP (tested in 13.3 - 13.3.2) when using Shared Network mode. If you query a DNS record that has a large number of results (512 bytes+) the DNS result will be truncated and the OS will send a TCP query to the DNS server. Tested MacOS guest...

Add official OpenBSD support - add OpenBSD as a choice as in the guest list (such as FreeBSD), support for automatic guest stop when the system reaches a halted state etc.
