To clarify, the guest receives the NAT address of the VB Host as it's DNS server. It DOES NOT receive the Host's DNS server as it's own DNS server. That is, VB is _proxying_ the DNS requests, it is not simply giving the guest it's own resolver. > So, if your host uses a IPv6 DNS server it gets passed to the guest. No it does not. As I said, VB _proxies_ (i.e. provides a DNS service to the guest directly) the DNS request. > So the guest tries to resolve the names using IPv6, I will say it again. No it does not. Try it yourself. Start a guest in VB and look at what it receives in the DHCP reply. It will have the NAT IP address of VB as it's DNS server, not the address that the Host is using for it's DNS server. If your VB guest is Windows, do an "ipconfig /all" and look at what the DNS server configuration says. > What you can try doing is to configure the guest to use an IPv4 DNS > server and see if this helps. That is not an option. b.
