Temporary failure in name resolution

[EmileDiaz]

Each time I reboot kali I am no longer able to ping websites by URL (Pinging to the IP still works)

I get a " Temporary failure in name resolution" error. Of course, this also prevents any ability to install software from github etc.

I have looked all over and was told to edit the resolv.conf file.

No solution I have tried has been permanent.

Can anyone help with a permanent fix?

Thanks a lot.

I had this same issue, don't know how or why it got fixed but I made a script that I ran when it happened.

fixresolv.sh

#!/bin/bash

# If /run/resolvconf directory doesn't exit, create it
if [ ! -d "/run/resolvconf" ]; then
mkdir /run/resolvconf
fi

#cp /etc/resolv.conf.JTLKRZ /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf

cat << EOF > /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf
search lan
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
EOF

Hope this helps, even if it is just temporary
