DNS names in guest Win 7 32 bit not visible
Posted: 1. Dec 2021, 13:30
Hello,
I have searched the net to find a solution to not seeing DNS names from a guest OS, which the host can see, but could not find. Will someone here know?
I have
- host MacOS Catalina 10.15.7
- VirtualBox 6.1.30 including Extension Pack
- guest Win 7 32 bit including Guest Additions
Running on:
- MacBook Pro (late 2015)
- 8 GB RAM
- 2-core i5 2,7 Ghz
What does not work in the guest OS is ping on DNS names of company servers, I can only ping the IP addresses. I can look up the IP address in the host Terminal, when I ping a DNS name. So the host has the DNS names. But not the guest.
Same thing in Win Explorer - I can access IP address, but not the DNS Name. I can go about pinging, but not when DNS names are part of links or called by programs.
I can access internet from the guest browsers.
