Name resolution works with host but fails otherwise












0















Ubuntu bash on Windows 10



I have an issue where the host and nslookup commands resolve all hosts just fine but all other commands fail domain resolution. See below:



user@computer:/mnt/c/Users/user$ host google.com
google.com has address 172.217.12.174
google.com has IPv6 address 2607:f8b0:4006:81a::200e
google.com mail is handled by 50 alt4.aspmx.l.google.com.
google.com mail is handled by 30 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com.

google.com mail is handled by 10 aspmx.l.google.com.
google.com mail is handled by 20 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com.
user@computer:/mnt/c/Users/user$ ping google.com

          This is an issue where Windows has applied updates to the sub system but a reboot has not occurred. A full reboot (of windows, not Linux Subsystem) solves this.
