Rambler Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Hi, i'm trying to test my unattended winxp install, but i'm having some troubles with VMWare. I've created new virtual machine (using host-only networking), set the cdrom to WinPE iso on my hdd. Machine boots fine from the iso image, it gets an IP address (192.168.119.128). But there is the problem - i can't connect (ping or map network drive) to my host machine. VMWare is working fine - i checked the IP addresses of my machine and there's also a 192.168.119.1 listed under VMnet1.And as for why i want to connect to my host pc - that's because i'm testing installations from distribution share.MS file and printer sharing is installed and enabled on my pc. I even tried disabling my firewall, that didn't help either.Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 Oh well, i better test some more next time before posting.The problem was i enabled my firewall again before trying to mount the network drive and the firewall was blocking it.Sorry for the wasted topic.
