My vmware ip address is 192.168.189.128. I installed vmware player in other machine. Then copied my *.vmx files. After successful installation of vmware. I opened virtual machine with my Solaris 10 64-bit.vmx. I found in the new machine ip address is same as my one. I tried pinging from DOS prompt. Got the error destination host unreachable. I executed vmnet.cfg I found DHCP settings of VMNet8 Start IP address 192.168.126.128 End IP address 192.168.126.254 DHCP settings for VMNet1 Start IP address 192.168.127.128 End IP address 192.168.127.254 VMNet host is VMNet8 So in the new machine VMware ip address should be some thing like 192.168.126.X This is the first time I am working with VMware. I have to used *.vmx file of my VMware. Looking the way to fix this problem? Thanks in advance for your help, suggestions. In my own machine VMware is running properly.

I executed vmnet.cfg I found

DHCP settings of VMNet8
Start IP address 192.168.126.128
End IP address 192.168.126.254

DHCP settings for VMNet1
Start IP address 192.168.127.128
End IP address 192.168.127.254

VMNet host is VMNet8
So in the new machine VMware ip address should be some thing like 192.168.126.X

This is the first time I am working with VMware. I have to used *.vmx file of my VMware. Looking the way to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help, suggestions.

Until I saw this post, I had no clue as to why I had no bridged networking on VMWare Player on my notebook. My notebook is usally networked via its wireless network, whereas VMware was trying to network via my (unconected) 100BaseT network adapter. For the player, the cure is to run "vmnetcfg.exe" in the VMWare program folder. Turn the automatic bridging OFF, and set VMnet0 to the working network adapter. Thanks for this.

It only really works properly if you set up a private LAN between nodes, with no big network at all. mmm, Vmware is very tetchy on laptops, where the cards are changing all the time.
