title: Can't ping a local VM from the host
body: <p>My work laptop is is a member of a domain (the OS is Windows 8). Created a new VM, locally on this laptop (using built-in Hyper-V). DHCP is provided by the domain and all IP addresses are assigned by the DHCP, both to the host and to the VM. The VM is not a member of the domain, just a member of the WORKGROUP. Trying to ping a local VM from the host. Pinging by machine name does not work. Pinging by IP address works just fine. Both host OS and the VM are on the same sub-network.</p>
  
  <p>The IP addresses change every time I reconnect the laptop to office network. I would like to avoid the pain of using different IP's all the time.</p>
  
  <p>Is there anything I can do on my end to make names resolution work? Adding the VM to the domain is not an option.</p>
