If you run openconnect with the '-v' argument, are there *any* X-CSTP-*
headers which do contain the full list of domains?

If not, you'll probably need to override it. You can use the --script
argument to point it at a vpnc-script replacement of your own... which
does nothing except set some environment variables (like
CISCO_DEF_DOMAIN) and then exec the real vpnc-script.

I think we also need a fix to vpnc-script to make it cope with multiple
domain names in $CISCO_DEF_DOMAIN. Currently it'll put the whole list
into a 'domain' line in resolv.conf, which is invalid. It'll need to
use just the first.

Or we introduce a new variable for $CISCO_SEARCH_DOMAINS, and put a
*list* in that instead?

If you're using NetworkManager, it should work this way. It uses
dnsmasq to provide a local nameserver, which behaves as you describe.

It would be possible to make vpnc-script set up dnsmasq in the same
way, and you're not the first person to ask. I wonder if it can be
implemented purely with a 'connect' hook which starts up dnsmasq and
then overrides the INTERNAL_IP4_DNS to point to localhost, and a 'post
-disconnect' hook which kills dnsmasq again? I'd prefer that to adding
even more complexity to vpnc-script...
