Cisco VPN Client not Updating DNS settings

We are running the Cisco 3.6.2.a client connecting to 3060 concentrators. The base group on the concentrator is configured with DNS and WINS addresses and all groups inherit those settings. Occasionally a client will not be able to get to Intranet addresses when connected via VPN when they had been able to reach those addresses in prior sessions. We have discovered that the DNS settings are not found in the DNS section of the network properties of the users network adapter. The IPsec log shows the client receiving the settings and no error message to show why the settings are not updated. After the settings are manually entered the user is fine and does not seem to have the problem again. All users are W2K and are a mix of cable and dsl users. Since this is occuring more frequently, we are trying to pinpoint why this happens, but we are not able to reproduce the problem onw our own systems. Any one experienced this or have a suggestion as to why this would happen?
