OT: General networking problem

Hi,

I have a general networking problem which maybe someone can help me with, the scenario is this. We have implemented a 3rd DNS filtering service

which we use to block non-work related web browsing - our DNS servers are on our internal LAN (Windows server 2000) which resolve local names but the forwarders go to opendns where content is filtered as per our rules.

The MD of the company is now insisting that he be exempt from this filtering, so we have the problem that if we change his DNS settings to external DNS servers he will not be able to resolve any internal names. One obvious solution would be to give him 2 PCs, one for web browsing only with external DNS servers & one for internal use but I don't think that would wash. Another solution I have considered would be to give him 2 NICs one with internal DNS & one with external DNS & somehow configure the browser to use the one NIC for web browsing & the other one for internal use but I don't know how I could do this? The PC is running Windows XP prof, SP2 - if anyone has any thoughts I'd be interested to hear them?

TIA, Jase
