hello guys, i installed openSUSE 12.1 in VMWare player(under win xp).
my problem is that it's not getting IP address.
here is output from ifconfig eth0:
Code:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr my:hw:address
inet6 addr: fe80::20c:29ff:fe70:c356/64 Scope Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:403 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:29 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:45736 (44.6 Kb) TX bytes:8334 (8.1 Kb)
Interrupt:19 Base address:0x2024
my Virtual Machine Settings:
i tried both Bridged: Connected directly to the physical network as well as NAT.
output of ifcfg-eth0:
Code:
cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0
BOOTPROTO='dhcp4'
STARTMODE='auto'
why the eth0 doesn't get IP address ?
please help
