All,

For the longest time I thought there was no way to manually influence the order in which windows prioritizes adapter specific DNS servers. I ran across this solution the other day and wanted to share it with the mailing list. Apparently, the DNS server priority is directly related to binding order of the associated adapter ...

If you bump up the binding order of the adapter, the DNS servers that are associated with that adapter will be preferred over other adapters when performing name resolution. For example: By bumping up the Shrew Soft Virtual Adapter in the binding order, the DNS servers associated with that adapter will be preferred over other adapters set to a lower binding order ( when the VPN client is active ).

Hope this helps someone,

-Matthew
