pptp - dns problem

G

Guest

Hi,

Even when I've connected to a remote pptp server, my PC uses the DNS servers
assigned by DHCP server.
So, I can't resolve the host names on my intranet via DNS...
What I hope is that, once the pptp connection set-up has been done, the DNS
servers on the PPP adapter are used by default.

Any Ideas?
