DNS not working on Windows Image

I am running MAC OS Big Sur ver 11.4 - VMWare Fusion Pro 12.1.2 (17964953) - Window 10 (virtual machine)

I cannot ping using FQDN but can ping that IP Address.  I have the Network setup as NAT.  this was working for a few weeks but all of a sudden stop about a week ago.

I saw some posts on this board but none seemed to fit.  Any help would be great.

What exactly is the error that you're getting on the ping?

From what system are you 'ping'ing the VM's IP address and FQDN?

Have you done basic DNS troubleshooting?

  • What is your DNS server address?
  • What does a DNS query via nslookup or dig (on both the system you are pinging from) say is the IP address of your VM?
