This is not true with secureclient/office mode but it is true with
securemote or secureclient. With secureclient/office mode all DNS
request are sent to the internal DNS server regardless of domain suffix.
Hence the problem.
When you define the domain for office mode you do not have the option to
add a label count as with the securemote DNS servers, I have found no
difference in behavior by leaving the domain name blank under the office
mode domain settings.

Secureclient/office mode does work with DNS fail over but this is not
split DNS and should not be advertised as such.

Ray ,

As far as I know only DNS queries which go to the internal DNS server
(DNS queries which has the internal domain suffix) will actually go
there encrypted while all other DNS queries (DNS queries which contains
all DNS suffix other then the internal domain) will go to the ISP DNS.

The DNS query by default is being sent to the DNS of the ISP. If and
only If the SecureClient's kernel "notice" that the suffix "belongs" to
the internal server (DNS queries which has the internal domain suffix)
then it will perform NAT to the internal DNS server.
