We faced this same issue when we first started to use the Gnatbox VPN Client. The solution that worked for us was to use Netswitcher: http://www.netswitcher.com/product_info.htm Using Netswitcher, we were able to setup up a "VPN" profile that changed the DNS/WINS settings (and other settings if needed) on the mobile client to use internal DNS/WINS servers. Internal host names could then be resolved successfully while connected to the internal network via VPN. After a user was finished, they could toggle back to their original settings without rebooting. It was worth the $14.00 per client price to have this functionality. We have since graduated to a Cisco 3015 VPN Concentrator with a Cisco-provided VPN client that switches the DNS settings automatically when connected.
