problems on OpenSolaris

I'm running OpenSolaris 2009.06 as a guest OS inside Sun VirtualBox on a
Windows XP64 host.  I also have an XP 32-bit guest OS and am able to use the
Cisco AnyConnect product fine inside that virtual machine, and I've used
vpnc on other virtual machines to connect to the same Cisco VPN server, so I
don't think running as a virtual machine is the issue.

Anyway, I installed "tun" prior to finding the OpenConnect info.  I then
found OpenConnect, and followed the instructions.  I first tried OpenConnect
2.21, but it would not compile.  So I went to the 2.10 version, and it
compiled fine (I used gcc and gmake).

I also grabbed the most recent vpnc-script.

Then, upon

./openconnect --script=./vpnc-script https://<my-anyconnect-server>

I get
getaddrinfo failed: node name or service name not known
Failed to open HTTPS connection to https://<my-anyconnect-server>
Failed to obtain WebVPN cookie

The connection is reached just fine in a web-browser on this same
virtual-machine, but since I'm running OpenSolaris, the anyconnect client
doesn't know what to do.

Hints on how to troubleshoot this please?
