Hi,

I've been troubleshooting a peculiar problem that arose when using vyum.

It would appear that vyum runs in the guest context (IP address, routing
tables) but uses the host's DNS servers. If the guest doesn't have
access to the DNS server that the host uses (e.g. multi-homed host using
an internal DNS server with an external-only facing guest), vyum will
fail with the PYCURL ERROR 6.

This doesn't seem like sane behaviour. If vyum runs in guest context it
should use the guest's DNS server settings. Is there a way to make vyum
either use the guest's DNS servers or run in the host context?
