I tried to use this template to build a VM with a Network NIC - Does this look correct for NIC assignment within VMware?
NAME="myvm-win" CPU=1 MEMORY=512 DISK=[ IMAGE_ID=13 ] NIC=[NETWORK_ID="1",MODEL="E1000"] Has anyone else done NIC assignments with Windows Deployments in Vmware? I can get the Windows VM up and running , the NIC shows up in the settings (as flexible) with the sunstone GUI But when I open the VM it has no NIC's inside of it? I choose the dummy network driver - maybe that's not what I needed?

We use this configuration (thus ignoring the opennebula-assigned IP) in several customers' networks, especially when the VM cones from virtualization of user desktops.

Still reading the documentation, but not seeing a method for it yet.
