I really hope someone can help out. I will even allow remote entry into m y computer for trouble shooting.
I am running VMWARE SERVER 2 on a I7 Dell computer. Specs:
Vista Ultimate
9 gigs ram
500 gig hard drive
Wired Ethernet
I have no internet connectivity on my Guest OS of Windows XP 32bit and Server 2008 64 bit.
When I first create the VM and bring up the OS, the internet is there. When I shut down and reboot, it never connects to the internet again. It will not get a DHCP assigned address. I even try to set one manually and still no interent.
My Host computer is setup as Static IP:
Ip Address - 192.168.1.200
Subnet - 255.255.255.0
Gateway - 192.168.1.1
DNS - 192.168.1.1
The guest is always assigning a private when because it cannot get a DHCP assigned.
If I set the IP manually to 192.168.1.201, I can ping myself but that is about it.
I really like this program and would love to start using it if only it worked.
I have even tried a 2nd NIC. My host computer has internet no problem.
Can someone please help me out here?
Thanks.....
