If Tom agrees, I plan all manner of testing; all to be done under the
watchful eye of Network Monitor.

The first statement makes no sense at all..?
"ping 192.168.1.2 " should return packets from 192.168.1.2; not " an IP addr
that belongs to TuCows domain ".

This happens no matter where the VPN client is located?
Wanna do some deeper testing offline and report back with our findings?

When I do a "ping 192.168.1.2" for my primary DC/DNS server I see returned
not 192.168.1.2 but an IP addr that belongs to TuCows domain.

When I do a "ping NT1" (server name - which should be 192.168.1.2) for my
primary DC/DNS server I see returned not 192.168.1.2 but an IP addr that
belongs to TuCows domain.

Here is the IPCONFIG/ALL from the affected laptop when connected to VPN...

        Secondary WINS Server . . . . . . : 192.168.1.2

Notice DHCP Enabled is NO for the PPP adapter - this is because I manually
set the DNS IP addr to my internal LAN DNS Servers.
