1 Hey all.

3 I've got OpenVPN installed, and it runs great. Only thing - I've noticed
4 between the Windows and Linux version - the Windows version seems to
5 auto-magically assign the proper nameserver addresses to the TUN device
6 once connected, hence I can just enter hostnames and ping or PuTTY with
7 no problem.

9 How can I do the same with OpenVPN on Linux? So far, I have to enter IP
10 addresses, which isn't bad - it just stinks trying to memorize them all!

12 Thanks!
