Hello everyone, I have installed dimdim vmware on my dedicated server, assigned one of my ips to it. On the host server (Windows 2003), I can open an internet browser and point to the vmware ip address and it works (dimdim conference comes up), however If I try to access the vmware from another computer outsite the server, then it does not work, it's not letting me access the vmware. I believe it has to do with some network setting. My dedicated server tech support guys have given me the following info to set it up correctly:
The IP addresses used here are just an exemple, do not use them.
In order to use additionnal IP in your VM you need to:
- Add the first additional IP available (10.10.10.10) to your Newtork card
- Enable ip forwarding to route VM traffic, you need to make some
modification on your registry keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\
CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Value Name: IPEnableRouter
Value type: REG_DWORD
Value Data: 1
- Apply new sysctl configuration (as root):
sysctl -p
- In VMWare make sure that your VM uses the bridge connection to your
Network card and that the VM use one of the other additionnal IP.
I followed the instructions above but i tdid not solve my problem, any suggestion?
