acessing a subnetwork from within a vm
- by yan bellavance
I have a pc running windows 7.
I have vmwareplayer running RHEL5
I have 1 physical ethernet connection.
this ethernet connection is wired to a hub.
there is another device on that hub that needs to be in a certain subnetwork (192.168.0.xxx)(lets call him device X)
but the general network is 192.168.1.xxx
How can I configure the network adapters so that I can ping device X from RHEL5 in the vm.
Originally I could ping google from both windows and rhel (I was in the .1 network) but not device X since he is on a different subnetwork address. Now that I have put it on the .0 I can ping device X from windows but not from rhel5 and cannot access the web. I did this by manually setting the IP address.
