3 Chapter 1 Installation 1.1 General The following explains how to install and configure the Barracuda VPN client on your client computer running under Linux, OpenBSD or Mac OS X. Quick update: The Current VPN Client for OSX is 3.2 HF5 (Dropdown -> About Barracuda VPN Client) (I know, Sorry for the weird version). This has been tested on OSX 10.9.1 and also works rock solid on my MacBook with 10.9.1, keeping me connected for hours without any loss.

The Preamble
I set up a VPN connection from my Macbook, and it seems to connect successfully.
However, I can't access my work computer because hostname doesn't get resolved:
The New Workaround
After trying everything I could, I found that this command makes both VPN network and internet available to me:
Company's DNS servers are accessible by their IPs. How do I configure the network to use them for everything that starts from 192.168?
The Old Workaround
I found a temporary workaround that allows me to access the network via VPN by modifying two options:
I put a checkmark in Send all traffic over VPN connection:I manually enter Search Domain name in VPN interface's DNS settings:
Performing these two steps is enough to make my working computer pingable:
However, as I tunnelled all traffic to go through VPN, I can no longer access the Internet:
The Question
How do I properly set up the network so it understands when to go through VPN, and when to use the normal connection? I need it to resolve Windows server names correctly.
If I need to post any console command output, I am willing to do that if you let me know which exactly.
Any help is highly appreciated, as this is a kind of show stopper for me now.
Thanks!

You might want to look at the resolver manpage
To quote one solution:
The configuration for a particular client may be read from a file having the format described in this man page. These are at present located by the system in the /etc/resolv.conf file and in the files found in the /etc/resolver directory. However, client configurations are not limited to file storage. The implementation of the DNS multi-client search strategy may also locate client configuratins in other data sources, such as the System Configuration Database. Users of the DNS system should make no assumptions about the source of the configuration data.
AFAIK you need to put a file named
example.com in /etc/resolver with the IPs of the nameservers for that domain if you want special nameservers for example.com -- Could be they use resolv.conf syntax, I can't remember. But you should be able to figure that out :)
EDIT: As far as automating the process goes, I'm pretty sure that's doable with AppleScript or Automator. But I never to my head around it so a second question on that topic might help.

There seems to be an issue with OSX setting the netmask incorrectly. This was my experience using a PPTP VPN in both Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion, and is supported by this thread here.
I found a solution here, which involves setting a routing rule for ppp0 traffic.
Basically:
This will set the routing rule every time you connect to the VPN.

Mac OSX DNS resolutions is funny. Here's the quick fix.
Mac OSX only uses DNS servers associated with your 'Primary' network connection. The above code adds the DNS servers of your VPN connection to the Primary network connection (i.e. usually Wi-Fi or Ethernet) so that your VPN DNS servers will be used first, then your Primary connection DNS servers second.
Run the
reset_dns command again after disconnecting form your VPN to remove the entries and restore the original DNS server configuration. This is optional, though, as it usually doesn't hurt anything to just keep the DNS servers associated.

I had the same issue. Turns out my home router was on the same IP range as my work system. Once I changed my home router to a different range I was able to connect.
