Bash on Ubuntu on Windows - No network access - Microsoft Community

hi,

i've installed bash on ubuntu on windows can not access network.  of posts i've read similar issues suggest issues with /etc/resolv.conf , mine correct.  automatically generated @ boot time , has correct values.  however, can not ping ip addresses (so not using dns).  not have network access, ping example.

the version of ubuntu installed 16.04.1

~$ lsb_release -a

no lsb modules available.
distributor id: ubuntu
description:    ubuntu 16.04.1 lts
release:        16.04
codename:       xenial

looking @ network interface (with ifconfig -a) appears correct.

eth0      link encap:ethernet  hwaddr 94:57:a5:##:##:##
          inet addr:172.16.8.163  bcast:172.16.15.255  mask:255.255.248.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::1d8a:####:####:####/64 scope:global
          broadcast running multicast  mtu:1500  metric:1
          rx packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          tx packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0
          rx bytes:0 (0.0 b)  tx bytes:0 (0.0 b)

and default gateway etc. seems fine also.

$ ip route | grep default
none default via 172.16.10.102 dev eth0  proto none  metric 0

i can ping eth0 interface nothing else.

 

$ ping 172.16.8.163
ping 172.16.8.163 (172.16.8.163) 56(84) bytes of data.

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.248/0.355/0.463/0.109 ms

but when ping computer on network nothing returns, hangs, doesn't time out.

$ ping 172.16.8.164
ping 172.16.8.164 (172.16.8.164) 56(84) bytes of data.

on host computer in powershell, ipconfig /all display following network configurations:

ethernet adapter ethernet:

and within powershell ping works expected.
