• Virtual systems (under VMWare Player) have need of their own antivirus and firewall software?

  My host system is Windows 7 Home Premium.  I put in place of virtual systems in VMWare Player (4.0.2 build-591240) for Windows 2000 and Windows 8 CP (among others), and all this hard work.  The host has its own antivirus (Avast) and firewall (ZoneAlarm more own Windows).  Network for virtual systems connections are bridged and all work very well to access internet and local network.  My question is: are the antivirus and firewall on the Windows 7 host sufficient or virtual systems also have their own antivirus and firewalls?

  Any system, physical or virtual, which had an Internet/network connectivity should be implemented on each system, appropriate security measures period!

• Manage virtual networks - where is it?

  Hello

  I am running VMWare Server 2.01 on a XP host. The help of VMWare says that I can go on Start & gt; All programs & gt; VMWare Server and select 'manage virtual networks' to do. Well, it's not there. When I select all programs from the menu start I see 'VMWare' and selecting which opens "VMWare Web Access. Selection that gives me a bunch of links/utilities of Tomcat.

  So, the question remains... How can I manage my virtual networks?

  Thank you

  Robert

  vmnetcfg.exe is what you want to run who should have a shortcut, but you should find it in the server installation folder. Don't forget to run as a user with local administrative rights.

• How to download and use my Win 7 Pro prior in a Virtual Machine in VMWARE PLAYER?

  before 3 years, I bought a win 7 pro PC - recently, I fee install 8.1... How to download and use my prior Win 7 Pro in a Virtual Machine in VMWARE PLAYER?

  Unfortunately, you must have prepared a recovery disk in advance or use the one provided with your computer.

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

• Connect two VMs via the connection to the local network using VMWare Player

  So this topic can be posted already, but I'm at the end of the roll, trying to find a solution. I have VMWare player installed 3.1.4 on an enterprise_x64 of Windows 7 system. I configured two virtual machines: OS1 comments: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.5_x64 and OS2 comments: WIndows 7 Ultimate_x64. I need the Linux server to act as a database server in the system environment, that I am creating. The Windows 7 VM will be the client PC. The Linux server is configured to be it's own DHCP server, so ideally the client PC connects to the field of tht and also follow the Linux server IP address.

  I tried all the options of networkign for each virtual computer, but no sem to create this type of connectivity. How to configure the network settings in VMWare Player to make two virtual computers can communicate with each other via a virtual network? (Communication with the host pc is not necessary)

  The short answer is to manually install the lack vmnetcfg.exe, Editor of virtual networkand configure VMnet2 without DHCP and host vNIC and then configure manually each virtual machine network adapter to use Custom VMnet2.

  The longer answer has already been given so many times that you should be able to find detailed directions, however...

  To install the lack vmnetcfg.exe, virtual network editor, run VMware-player-* .exe-e c:\vmptmp go to a command line and then in the c:\vmptmp folder, locate the file c:\vmptmp\network.cab and extract (double-click on the .cab file) vmnetcfg.exe (virtual network editor) file in the working directory of VMware Player usually ' C:\Program Files\VMware/VMware Player ' you can create a shortcut to it and place it with the shortcut of VMware Player if you want to access more easily to her.  This utility is not installed by default is however necessary to turn off the automatic bypass on VMnet0 if the system is multihomed and two or more physical host from the NETWORK adapter is active or you want change VMnet1 and VMnet8 subnet addresses or additional VMnets.

  The you must manually change the configuration of each virtual machine's .vmx file in Notepad, change an existing parameter and add another.

  Change:

  ethernet0.connectionType = "nat"
  

  TO:

  ethernet0.connectionType = "custom"
  

  Add:

  ethernet0.vnet = "VMnet2"
  

  Note: Regardless of connectionType ethernet (n) shows it should be changed to "custom".

  Be sure also to Machine virtual are stop, not suspended and VMware Player is closed when you edit the .vmx config files.

  Here are some pictures to show.

  Here in the VMnet2 virtual network Editor is selected and is how it should be if you what to use your own DHCP server and the host does not have a vNIC.  You can change the IP address as a result of your needs.

  

  Here's the value VM card network NAT settings.

  

  This is what network settings Virtual Machine map will look like after you change the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file to use Custom VMnet2.

  

  BTW if you replace the Machine network card virtual settings through the user interface customized by something else then you will need to manually edit the .vmx config file to retrieve.   With VMware Workstation, you do not need to manually install the virtual network editor and should not manually edit the .vmx config file as the custom list box is still present and shows all VMnets to select from.

• Error playing the virtual machine in VMware Player

  Hi all

  I am getting error below while reading VM(UI VM.ova) UI in VMware Player. Everyone has also same error. Help, please.

  Thanks in advance,

  RizQad

  
  

  

  It is in fact no error, but the result of not being able to get the automatic (DHCP) IP settings. Please check which virtual bridged network (Host-Only, NAT) is configured for the virtual computer and check if the related DHCP service is running. Also make sure that NIC of the virtual computer is configured with "Connect to light". If no DHCP server is available, follow the instructions in the red part of the screen.

• Configuration connection between two virtual machines on VMware Player

  Hello

  I have a host machine running Windows 7, which is connected to my company's intranet. On this machine, I have two OS guests on VMware Player:

  VM1 - Running Windows Server 2003, in my company intranet

  VM2 - Running CentOS 5, not registered in my company intranet.

  The second of the two is a pre-packaged VM, fully operational to run a complex database system that has been downloaded from the software provider.

  I need to set up the environment such as the VM1, an application can connect to the database running on computer 2.

  For the moment I can do the following with success-

  * Ping the host to VM1 and vice versa

  * Ping the host to VM2 and vice versa

  * Ping to VM1 VM2

  However, I don't do a ping of VM1 VM2.

  Can someone please explain why this is the case? In addition, please suggest me on the best way to get this working environment. I prefer to do the minimum to juggle the VMS as they run important applications. In addition, it is not possible to save VM2 on my intranet, if that would solve the problem.

  Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read and answer.

  EDIT: Just noticed that I am able to access restricted intranet websites through VM2.

  Ahhhh, presto! Easy solution!

  All you need to do is change the 2 virtual computer hardware settings and change the network card.

  RightClick the VM, in settings, then replace the network card of NAT in bridge

• automatic start of the virtual machine on vmware player 2.5.1?

  Can VMWare Player 2.5.1 the virtual machine autostart when it starts? I have Windows running VMWare Player when it starts, but just, this brings me to the main page of player where you can open file, recent opening, etc. You still have to physically click to open the virtual machine. So is there a way that I could automate it to just run itself when it opened (change of maybe a file somewhere)? If this version/product does not support this, can you recommend one that does?

  Player doesn't have the ability to auto-start the virtual machines.  The fact of VMware Server.  Server start virtual machines when Windows starts, not when you start the server GUI, which is not exactly what you are referring, but is usually what most people want when they want machines virtual autostart.

  'office' versions of Windows are listed as taken hosts supported OS.  Many threads on these forums about the small nagging issues with networking and such when to use Server on unsupported hosts, especially hosts Vista and Win7.  You don't specify what version of Windows you are using as the host.  If it is a server version, VMware Server is an option for you.

  But a simple solution is to simply make shortcuts to the. Files in the folder of your VMX virtual machine.

• Creating a virtual network in VMware Fusion 4?

  Hey,.

  I did a lot of navigation but can't seem to find a guide step by step to create a virtual network VMware Fusion 4. I have 2 OSX Lion virtual computers created and wants to make them talk to each other (preferably in their own environment), but there is no easy way to do so in the merger, the difference with VMware Workstation, unfortunately. If anyone knows of a post I may have missed or a simple guide for this, I would be very grateful.

  I would also like to make the suggestion that the functionality to what is included in VMware Workstation inccluded molten in a next update/version if possible . I see a lot of requests for this, and I think it would really improve the product. You might even have a records system as in 8 work stations and keep the feel of iTunes!

  Thanks in advance.

  There are similarities in the way that Workstation and Fusion are used - to answer your question, see the Documentation centre of vSphere -http://pubs.vmware.com/fusion-4/index.jsp - and research networks

• No access to the network through VMWare Player

  Hello

  I currently have ESXi as a guest on VMWare Player 3.1.3 on a Ubuntu 10.10 system.

  The ESXi system can access the network very well, but all guests accommodated on ESXi is unable to access the network.

  The guests are usually able to receive DHCP information, but cannot ping (or undertake any other connection) outside. In addition, the ESXi host cannot ping these guests running.

  Is this just a limitation of the software curiously layered? Or is there something I can do to fix this?

  Thank you
