Exactly what problems?
Sorry John, I thought I have shown that more up in this thread. Here the message is: "The network bridge on device /dev/vmnet0 is temporarily down because the bridged Ethernet interface is down. The virtual machine may not be able to communicate with the host or with other machines on your network."
Try Nat Ethernet and see if that works for you.
Yes, that works.
You should be able to fire up a virtual machine and change its settings to Nat for a test to see if it will work.
I now can access for instance the Internet.
Bridged has the additional requirement of having to alias your nic so that it can obtain two IPs on the same network interface. I have seen several instances where that would not work, usually because the ISP would only allow one IP per nic, but also with really cheap routers that had poor dhcp servers. (Some Dlink models).
Ok, I cna tell you, that I have not had probs before running with 2 IP's. But that was when I ran it all via a server. Now I use a Netgear WGR614v6 router. For the LAN, I run fixed IP's, as I also did running the server.
Then if Nat works we can start working on Bridged.
I think the time has come :-) -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards Erik Jakobsen erik_ja@mail.tele.dk openSuSE 10.2 (i586) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
