I am not looking to change the client config files.  I am looking to change the DNS server that the OpenVPN server uses (and thus the clients use as well).  I have this installed as a virtual machine on ESXi.

How do I change the DNS server of an OpenVPN server setup on the server-side?

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.
