Probably something stupid -- cannot find SRV records and fails

I have a Crochet build environment that runs on a native FreeBSD OS (on metal) without problems and has for quite some time. I'm trying to move that build environment to a VM running on VirtualBox; the host is Windows 11. Everything appears to work as expected normally, including pulling the source from HEAD, setting up a worktree for stable/14, doing a buildworld/kernel and such and in fact the crossbuild for ARM64 via Crochet -- except the package grab at the end for a set of packages I want on the embedded media output once the install of the system itself into the md is complete. Again this works fine on my long-standing build box that runs on actual metal, and as far as I can tell there isn't any difference -- I have the same setup (to grab "latest" rather than "quarterly") in /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf, for example. I am getting this, which is a replay (by hand) of what Crochet does at that point -- it does not chroot during the build and runs in the native (in this case AMD64) context, but with the "-c" flag to the mounted install filesystem for the pkg command (which is on an md): # pwd /work/OBJ/ARM64-14-STABLE/_.mount.freebsd # env ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES=YES pkg -d -c . install rsync sshbuard ntimed ffmpeg mpg321 git DBG(1)[53612]> pkg initialized Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...

I turned debugging on with "-d" because the original build was not giving me any idea of what was happening, but this appears to imply there's no connectivity out of the VM in that it can't resolve the hostname -- but there is, obviously. Pkg against the base installed system works properly and have a decent number of packages installed (specifically git and its dependencies, which was loaded to grab the source tree of course.)
