/etc/resolv.conf should always point to a dns server. Is the
host running a DNS service? If it is, it should respond pretty
quickly for a nonexistent hostname query. Why doesn't it?
If it is not running a DNS service, how did you arrive at this
decision to point to the host?

You may want to run tcpdump on the host and at the same time
on a linux VM and see what happens. You can do the same thing
for a freebsd VM to try to narrow down where the problem lies.
