Version 6.1.16 r140961 (Qt5.6.2) on Windows 10
After installing VB and selecting NAT as my network configuration of choice, I could ping the outside internet, but couldn't resolve websites by name.
I resolved the problem by running
Code: Select all
./VBoxManage.exe modifyvm "Ubuntu NiFi" --natdnshostresolver1 on
This seemed to solve my DNS problem immediately, but the modification seems to only last temporarily. Every time the host computer restarts I have to rerun the command.
I'd like to be able to have VB always use the host for DNS resolution as I run VPNs on the host and need to access the host's current understanding of DNS instead of Googles.
I'd appreciate any help on how to permanently make VB use the host for resolving URLs.
