Hi,
Below is my setup
Host OS: windows xp (firewall configured)
IP: Gave a statis IP (say 192.168.1.120)
Guest OS: Windows Server 2003
IP: Gave a static IP (say 192.168.1.121)
Both are using the same Gateway, subnet & DNS servers (as part of router).
Guest is setup to use Bridge Network.
The problem is that i am not able to ping the Host OS from the Guest OS but can do other way. I am able to access internet on Guest OS, so network settings are set right as far as i see. If i disable the firewall on Host OS, then i am able to ping host OS from guest. Any idea how i can add exception or what ports to open for exception in host firewall? I have default installation of vmware workstation.
Any information would be of great help.
Thanks,
Sri.
Not sure what you mean by firewall configured, if you have already done this, ignore following
If that allows ping, then go to Local Area Connection, properties, Advanced, Windows Firewall, Settings, Advanced tab, Local Area Connection, Settings, ICMP Tab, Allow incoming echo request.
Works OK here.
