Internet is not working on VMPlayer for Ubuntu10.04 but working for Fedora12
 

Hi Guys,

I got VM Images from the below sites
Ubuntu 10.04 from the VMPlanet and Fedora from the thoughtpolice.

I am able to access the internet from the Fedora12 by selecting the network device as NAT and by entering the proxy settings.

But i am not able to access the internet from the Ubuntu10.04 with the same settings.

Please let me know, whether there are any options i need to enter for getting Ubuntu connected to the internet.

P.S: I searched the forum but didn't got any answer, as i dont want to re-open those threads i am initiating new thread, if i am wrong please apologize me.

Thanks in Advance,

Hi Guys,

I also faced similar issue with Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64: my host ip is 192.168.1.2 and vmnet8 got ip 192.168.1.1 from vm-dhcpd. It seems to be clashed with my lan network so every time when it is looking to connect with it. it gets failed and web is not accessible from host machine. In my case i changed ip address of vm-dhcpd at /etc/vmware/vmnet8/dhcpd/dhcpd.conf from 192.168.1.0 network to other e.g. 192.168.10.0 and modify /etc/vmware/networking "answer VNET_8_HOSTONLY_SUBNET 192.168.1.0 to answer VNET_8_HOSTONLY_SUBNET 192.168.10.0". Restart "sudo /etc/init.d/vmware restart" after running this you would be able to connect web and lan as well. I hope this might help.

Thanks,
Shah
