kvpnc does not work anymore DNS server?

Hi

I used kvpnc without problems in Kubuntu 10.04+trinity.
But now either in Ubuntu 14.04+trinity or Kubuntu14.04+trinity
I run into a serious problem.

The kvpnc connects to the VPN server using the chisco backend.
Everything works, connection is established, but then

Any ping does not give a result

 for example ping www.economist.com

Just hangs.
But ping 192.230.82.108

Gives a result so it seems a strange DNS problem

When I have no connection then

ping www.economist.com

just would give unknown host

Be it as it may, I cannot use the connection this way. The browser does
not fin  Once I close the
vpn tunnel everything works again fine. I googled but did not find any
result.

Any help on this issue is highly appreciated since VPN is very important
to me.
