Hi,

when I try to run wsl2ip2winhosts.ps1 it will always throw the error -

I've tried to set permissions on host file for EVERYONE to FULL CONTROLL but still receiving the same error. I can edit it via Notepad but not with PS :(.

How did you make it to edit host file by PS?

Hi, my first use it.but when I get the script to my wsl2 host.then use "sh XXXX.sh",nothing happeded

Hi, thank you for your work.

How can I remove everything that the script does...I have pretty complex use-cases and this script does not write correctly the WSL /etc/hosts for in my machine.

I tried to re-run the installation to avoid it running every time i start the WSL but it always update my hosts files...

may you help me please?

Thanks @hndcrftd for the great utility.

However, I am unable to get it to work as the windows hosts file is not updated.

No error is produced on my system when running the install script

windowshost.local is successfully added to /etc/hosts but the hostname entered in the script is never added to windows hosts.

Output on my machine:

➜ cd ~;\
➜ curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hndcrftd/wsl2ip2hosts/master/install.sh > wsl2ip2hosts.install.sh;\
➜ chmod +x wsl2ip2hosts.install.sh;\
➜ sudo PATH="$PATH" ~/wsl2ip2hosts.install.sh

Would you like to add your Windows IP to your WSL /etc/hosts? [y/n] (default: y) :y

Enter hostname for Windows (default: windowshost.local) :

Would you like to start httpd web server when WSL starts? [y/n] (default: y) :

For your WSL enter a hostname or multiple, separated by space
:wsl.local

Populating IPs, this will take a few seconds...
