Cisco VPN Dialer/Blankice combination, can't ping DNS server

[stewm]

When I connect to work via a Cisco VPN Dailer/Blackice combination I'm not longer able to ping my pc at work. This was working fine. When I do a ipconfig /all it shows the dns servers have changed to 157.199* ips which look similiar to ips at work. But I can't ping anything that starts with 157.199.*.

Any suggestions.

Thanks

Try an nslookup on the IP address of your work pc and post results.
