I have a Windows SBS 2003 Server running RAS
Clients are able to connect to the VPN fine, they can ping by IP fine as
well, however they cannot ping by hostname at all. I have tried pinging by
FQDN and that also does not work. I confirmed that the correct DNS address is
being assigned to the VPN client.
Internally all clients can resolve by hostname and IP
Here is an ipconfig of a client connected.

Here is the results of a ping
C:\>ping sbs2003dc
Ping request could not find host sbs2003dc. Please check the name and try
again.
And a Ping by IP
C:\>ping 192.168.10.5
Pinging 192.168.10.5 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.10.5: bytes=32 time=58ms TTL=128
Any ideas on what could be the problem?
