  • The AnyConnect client might be redirecting your DNS lookups in Win8 to your corporate network's DNS servers, while the VM won't have such a redirect. Do you know your company/organization's DNS server IPs? You could try adding that to the /etc/resolv.conf.

  • so your resolv.conf points to your LAN DNS server, which is inaccessible when the host connects to the VPN. Do you want the traffic from the VPN to hit your LAN or VPN'ed network? if the former, enable split tunneling in your hosts VPN client so that lan traffic is not sent onto the VPN, and your existing DNS configuration shoudl continue to work. if the latter, you will have to reconfigure the guests dns to point to one accessible on the VPN network.
