LinuxGuy:
Finally...its working...... :)
I can access my Samba shares in the Virtual machine from WinXP.
This is what I did. But I am not sure which are the necessary steps.
1) I ran 'setup' at the terminal and under Network Configuration, assigned a static IP to eth0
IP : 192.168.65.3
Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
Gateway : 192.168.65.1 (IP of the host WinXP system)
Learnt the 'setup' command from http://www.vulnerabilityassessment.co.uk/vmware.htm
2) Started 'named'. But I don't think it is related since I am working entirely with IP addresses.
3) I ran 'lokkit' to bring up the firewall configuration and selected eth0 as a trusted device. Learnt about 'lokkit' from http://ken.coar.org/musings/VMware.html
I think this was the culprit. I have to undo the first two to confirm this. However, I have no idea how I was able to ssh and ftp to the linux vm when eth0 was not a trusted device. ;)
1 full day!!!! But the satisfaction is worth it :D
m6arate:
hmmm... when I run it in either of the terminals (Eterm and Xterm) it says command not found.
but... I GOT IT WORKING!!! I user Zone Alarm, and I had to change a setting in there to get it to work. I should have thought of that sooner. If anyone else is having trouble with this and wants me to be a little more specific, pm me
argh... now i have one final problem. I cant access the internet with vmware! It worked before, once i first installed it. any ideas?
