Vista and SecureClient VPN DNS issues.

Hi guys,

I'm having fun with a vista laptop and configuring it to connection to
our Checkpoint SecureCient VPN over dial-up.

The machine will connect to the VPN but it is using the ISP (dial-up
connection) dns server rather than our internal servers as pushed out
by the VPN client. When I run ipconfig /all I can see that the VPN
connection has got the DNS servers configured, but when I run nslookup
it is defaulting to the external DNS server.

Windows XP/2000 clients do not experience this problem, in fact they
never have.

Is there any way that I can change the Vista Primary DNS server for
all connections? Can this be automated by the SecureClient.. or am I
simply missing a trick?

Thanks in advance....

Maybe, you need to post to a ms.public.windows.vista NG at
msnews.micorsoft.com about Vista.
