Ok, this is probably a pipe dream, but I'll try asking anyway.

Is there any way to have the pipeline grab the DNS address from the ppp negotiation (via ipcp) and then to act as the local networks DNS (ie: I set my local machine's DNS entry to be the pipeline; the pipeline then routes the DNS request to the appropriate DNS server and sends the info back to the local machine)?

--rob

(Why do I want it ?  My Pipeline75 is setup to connect to a corporate network in one profile and an ISP in another.  I already have to switch "My Name" and the NAT Profile each time I switch between them (very annoying; why can't this be profile based?), but now it looks like I need to change each machine on the local network to point to the appropriate DNS address)
