I'm having a strange problem using DNS. Kali is running as a guest on VM Workstation , Bridged network and HTTP, FTP, Ping connections all good. The odd thing is that I don't get the
dig command to work using the default server ; when I use 8.8.8.8. as the server it works fine and I get the required answer ; however, the
host command works perfectly using the default server
Code:
root@kali:~# cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Kali
DISTRIB_RELEASE=kali-rolling
DISTRIB_CODENAME=kali-rolling
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Kali GNU/Linux Rolling"
root@kali:~#
root@kali:~# uname -mrs
Linux 4.9.0-kali4-686-pae i686
Code:
root@kali:~# dig ANY google.com
; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Debian <<>> ANY google.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
Code:
root@kali:~# dig @8.8.8.8 ANY google.com

The
nslookup command works fine too. It's puzzling.
