Angry problems with internet connection with opensuse 11 in vmwareplayer


Hi guys it's me again I posted a question the other day http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...use-11-727193/ but I think I have found the problem in the network configuration the "network ethernet card" says no hwinfo I have ran dmesg | grep eth0 and the message I get is...
eth0. registered as PCnet/PCI 79C970A
eth0 renamed to eth1
undev renamed network interface eth0 to eth1
but in the network configuration 79c970 [PCnet32 Lance] is eth1 not the ethernet network card
opensuse is saying that I am online and the packets sent and received in my local area connection seem to reflect that but alas not internet connection at all any help would be great appriciated thanks

Can you run an "ifconfig" and print the output please?
(note for beginners: you might need to become root or run as root)

So, your physical network connection ip address on the host is 24.93.111.1
Then what are these addresses? (from your previous post)
Quote:
ethernet network card
ip address 24.93.111.33
mask 255.255.248.0
gateway 24.93.104.1
79c970 [pcnet32 Lance]
ip address 24.93.111.2
mask 255.255.248.0
I assume this is the guest OS?
Quote:
now my network settings in windows xp media center edition (host os dhcp assigned)
ip address 24.93.111.3
mask 255.255.248.0
gateway 24.93.104.1
Thanks.
