Well, except for the timekeeping problem (there are workarounds but they're annoying) and the significant networking issues (no bidirectional port forwarding so "localhost:8080" doesn't work with server in WSL and DISPLAY=:0.0 doesn't work with server on Windows).
- nacs 6y agoAlso if you connect to a VPN (like your corporate VPN using Cisco Anyconnect), you lose connectivity within WSL2... WSL is nice to have and a million times better than DOS/Powershell but it's not at Linux/Mac terminal level yet.
- 1_player 6y agoDepends on the nature of the VPN. I can connect fine through my work OpenVPN, but it's not a full tunnel, just pushes a couple routes and split DNS, both of which are accessible on the WSL2 VM.
- easton 6y agoI don’t have that problem with WSL2 and Cisco AnyConnect. Maybe something’s up with your company’s configuration?
