[PLUG] Caught in the local net

[Matthew Rosewarne <mrosewarne@inoutbox.com>]

I have a server/gateway running ClarkConnect which handles DHCP & DNS using 
dnsmasq.  Let's call it server.bork.org.  There are a few clients, let's say 
client.bork.org.

Connecting via the VPN, I can reach either server.bork.org or client.bork.org. 
However. when connecting to a non-existant machine, such as nonsense.bork.org, 
I reach server.bork.org.

What's even stranger, running "ssh client.bork.org"  from server.bork.org 
connects to... server.bork.org.

I'd expect the server NOT to resolve non-existant *.bork.org names.  More 
importantly, the server definitely needs to be able to connect to other 
machines on the network.  How can I make dnsmasq do the "right thing"?
