openvpn dns problem..

I updated to the latest firmware: 378.53
Did a reset.
I reset all my configuration.

But now my openvpn seems to work at times for a while if i reboot the router.
I am pretty sure it is related to to dns.

It puts these errors in the log.
May 30 17:17:42 openvpn[759]: RESOLVE: Cannot resolve host address: us1.vyprvpn.com: Name or service not known
and tools can resolve that domain or any other
Server: 127.0.0.1 Address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain nslookup: can't resolve 'www.google.com'

i am using opendns for dns.
208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220

I am not sure what setting is not correct.
I am looking for some ideas.

Known issue, already fixed in the 378-54 alpha builds. This happen if the VPN client tries to connect before the NTP client has had a chance to update the clock.
