DNS stop works after host sleep and wake-up.

Post by ukolovda »

Hello!

I use Windows-7 64bit host and Linux guest (Fedora 19 32 bit) with NAT network.
After I sleep host machine (laptop) and wake up on another network, DNS stops works on guest.
Error is: "Could not resolve hostname some_name: Name or service not known".
(I try bitbucket dot org, but can not post it here)

In version 4.3.20 workaround was reconnect network interface.
In 4.3.24 it don't help more.
After shutdown guest and start again all works fine (reboot guest is not enough).

But when I changed network type from NAT to Host-only and back to NAT (in machine settings), it begin works.

Disabling any type of "sleeping" may be the best thing to do alltogheter, no ?
