Hi all,
I've just got vmware running on my machine. Its using a pre-installed
Win98 on a separate partition. The machine was previously a dual boot
with both OS's using the same IP address.
My question is:
How do I have the virtual Win98 session and Linux use the same IP address?
My samba share and all other network services dont work in a vmare
session, but they work ok when I boot natively into Win98.
I've tried using 'bridged' and 'NAT' but neither seem to do the job.
An output of ifconfig looks like:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:AD:86:D4:ED
inet addr:10.27.1.4 Bcast:10.27.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
vmnet1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:C0:00:01
inet addr:172.16.242.1 Bcast:172.16.242.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
vmnet8 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:C0:00:08
inet addr:192.168.146.1 Bcast:192.168.146.255 Mask:255.255.255
(unimportant bits deleted)
The 'actual' IP address is 10.27.1.4
Am I asking for the impossible?
Regards,
Andy
