Sorry, I wasn't specific. My clients look up "openvpn1[2,3,4].chguernsey.com" to connect, and I'm interested in how it handles the results. I expect it uses the Windows resolver, and that it will receive all of the numeric results. So if I change my DNS entries to report PTR mercury.chguernsey.com. A 65.120.131.235 A 172.21.166.249 can I get the client to "notice" that it is directly connected to the 172.21.166 subnet and use that IP? For the moment I'm pursuing a split-view DNS to report only the internal address on that subnet. It should hide the effects of the routing-loop problem until it can be properly resolved.
