[SOLVED] Not able to connect internet

jyotig · 03-14-2014, 12:59 PM

Hi,
I have Installed Oracle Linux 5 on VMware virtual Machine with two network adapters- Bridged and Host-only. I did manual setting for eth0 and eth1. Here is detail for both-

eth0
IP address- 192.168.1.161
netmask - 255.255.255.0
gateway-192.168.0.0
dns-192.168.0.0
host name- ora-db

eth1
IP address- 192.168.2.161
netmask - 255.255.255.0
gateway-192.168.0.0
dns-192.168.0.0
host name- ora-db

But I am not able to connect Internet through the Virtual machine. Can somebody guide me to solve the problem.

You don't have a valid gateway & dns.
Correct those and restart network.

What can be the correct DNS and GATEWAY? If you can tell, it will be great help.

Thanks

Sorry, I don't have access to your host and/or firewall... ;-)
As you're running your Oracle Linux as a vm guest, use the same settings you have on the host.

If you can't find it, try:
DNS: 8.8.8.8 (Goggle's nameserver)
Gateway: 192.168.1.1 & 192.168.2.1 (kind of standard, but your network techs could have set it to anything in the 192.168.1.0/24 & 192.168.2.0/24 network.
