More recent resolution: | |
1. cd ~/../../etc (go to etc folder in WSL). | |
2. echo "[network]" | sudo tee wsl.conf (Create wsl.conf file and add the first line). | |
3. echo "generateResolvConf = false" | sudo tee -a wsl.conf (Append wsl.conf the next line). | |
4. wsl --terminate Debian (Terminate WSL in Windows cmd, in case is Ubuntu not Debian). | |
5. cd ~/../../etc (go to etc folder in WSL). | |
6. sudo rm -Rf resolv.conf (Delete the resolv.conf file). | |
7. In windows cmd, ps or terminal with the vpn connected do: Get-NetIPInterface or ipconfig /all for get the dns primary and | |
secondary. | |
8. With the dns primary and secondary getted replace the numbers in the next step in the X.X.X.X | |
9. echo "nameserver X.X.X.X" | sudo tee resolv.conf (Create resolv.conf and append the line.) | |
10. echo "nameserver X.X.X.X" | sudo tee -a resolv.conf (Append the line in resolv.conf) | |
11. wsl --terminate Debian (Terminate WSL in Windows cmd, in case is Ubuntu not Debian). | |
12. sudo chattr +i resolv.conf | |
13. And finally in windows cmd, ps or terminal: | |
Get-NetAdapter | Where-Object {$_.InterfaceDescription -Match "Cisco AnyConnect"} | Set-NetIPInterface -InterfaceMetric 6000 | |

Original resoltuion: | |
1. Create a file: /etc/wsl.conf. | |
2. Put the following lines in the file in order to ensure the your DNS changes do not get blown away | |
[network] | |
generateResolvConf = false | |
3. In a cmd window, run wsl --shutdown | |
4. Restart WSL2 | |
5. Create a file: /etc/resolv.conf. If it exists, replace existing one with this new file. | |
6. Put the following line in the file | |
nameserver 8.8.8.8 # Or use your DNS server instead of 8.8.8.8 which is a Google DNS server | |
7. Repeat step 3 and 4. You will see git working fine now. | |
