WSL as a service with SSH access

WSL as a service with SSH access

In this tutorial, we will configure a Windows Linux subsystem that will automatically start when the system boots without requiring a user to log in. WSL is started like a daemon, without opening a terminal. It will be easily accessible via SSH.

Features

  1. WSL started as a service
  2. No user login needed
  3. No WSL terminal visible after login

singledispatchmethod on __init__

I've been doing a bit of refresher on Python, learning about the new capabilities added in Python 3.

Tonight, I learned about @singledispatchmethod alongside typehinting.

You can use it wth __init__ on classes. Honestly, there's no reason why that shouldn't be the case since object allocation and initialization are separated in Python. But it's still nice to confirm.

WSL 2 Cisco AnyConnect Networking Workaround

Overview

WSL 2 uses a Hyper-V Virtual Network adapter. Network connectivity works without any issue when a VPN is not in use. However when a Cisco AnyConnect VPN session is established Firewall Rules and Routes are added which breaks connectivity within the WSL 2 VM. This issue is tracked WSL/issues/4277

Below outline steps to automatically configure the Interface metric on VPN connect and update DNS settings (/etc/resolv.conf) on connect/disconnect.

Manual Configuration
