i have this working useing bering-uclibc, i use pcnet32 (dont forget the mii module) on the vlance virtual nic
only problem i had was that i was unable to boot on the virtual scsi harddrive, and had to boot using a virtual floppy image, and save my config and packages on the virtual scsi disk. the virtual bering is used as a firewall between the internett and the virtual servers running on the virtual lan. from what you write, i would guess that you need to uncomment the mii module also, (copy it over if you dont have it already) good luck Ronny Aasen On Sun, 2004-10-10 at 15:30, Paul Reynolds wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > I am new to LEAF and am trying to get Bering working under VMware, but I am > unable to get the networking component working. > > I have turned Shorewall and iptables off, to eliminate problems.
