Hi Julio,
=20
How do I set the ip/name in every vm os according to the table? Do i set
my adapter up for DHCP or how can i explicity set ip addresses? What
should my Gateway ip address be set as? As for "sfdemohost" should it
not just be my local address, ie 127.0.0.1? Do i need to disable my
physical ethernet adapter for this to work?
=20
Kind Regards,
=20
Gary

Hi Gary,

=20

I don't have/use vmware server but I use vmware workstation and this is
what I do to make sure that the vms can locate each other:

=20

1. Configure VMWare

- Set up VMWare networking to use *only* the NAT/DHCP service (VMNet8)

  disable the other network services

=20

2. Configure windows/linux networking  (in host and vms)=20

=20

- Set ip/name in every vm os according to the table bellow.

=20

- Add the following to the Windows HOSTS file

(c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts)

- Add the following to the linux HOSTS file

(\etc\hosts)

=20

=20

Example:

192.168.182.1  sfdemohost

=20

192.168.182.100  sfdemo00

192.168.182.101  sfdemo01

192.168.182.102  sfdemo02

192.168.182.103  sfdemo03

192.168.182.104  sfdemo04

192.168.182.105  sfdemo05

192.168.182.106  sfdemo06

=20

=20

Once you have finished test with nslookup to see is all the machines can
reach the others.=20

=20

Then everything should work.

=20

Please, let me know if this works for you on VMWServer or if you need
more detailed instructions.

=20

Hey guys,=20

I am using VMWare Server, and I am not allowed to use bridged networking
mode (for virtual machines) in my network. How can I set up VMWare
Server so that I can deploy component descriptions to a sfDaemon running
on a virtual machine, from a physical machine?

I have tried using NAT but when I try deployment it either fails, or
deploys to my physical machine (if its running sfDaemon).=20

Kind Regards,=20
