Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

I have followed your link: https://www.whitewaterfoundry.com/blog/2022/4/16/announcing-built-in-systemd-support-in-fedora-remix-for-wsl

1/ Edit the /etc/wsl.conf to establish a custom hostname. Add a hostname entry in the [network] section with the hostname that you like 'fedoraremix'

2/ Install avahi with sudo dnf -y install avahi and enable it with sudo systemctl enable avahi-daemon

3/ Stop Fedora Remix with wsl.exe --terminate fedoraremix

Above step 3 triggered the subject message.
