no internet for images
Hey all,
I'm having troubles getting internet access for my images. I'm currently assigning address statically on a standalone system. The images can communicate with each other and the management node, but nothing outside of that. I confirmed with the network guys that the ip addresses I'm using should have internet access, so I assume this must be a VMware setting issue.
This is my first time using VMware Server 2, so I may have slipped up somewhere. I've tried host-only and bridged networking and neither resolve the issue. In the past, for VMware Server 1, I used to use Custom and then specified the vmnet. I'm not sure how this setting transposes over to VMware Server 2.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks,
Patrick Sigmon

Is this problem happening on Linux images, Windows, or both? Please
send the vcld.log output and I'll trace through it.

Hey Josh,
That was the right question to ask for me to see what I missed before. VCL sets up the default gateway with eth1 (the typical public network), but in my instance I currently only have eth0 to work with. I changed the Iface to eth0 and I got Internet. So my new question is, until they set me up the other network, how can I make it so that VCL assigns the default gateway to eth0 during setup?
Thanks,
Patrick

You can ping the default gateway from the vms, but cannot get beyond that to
the rest of the internet?

Hey Andy,
I am able to ping the default gateway. I also made all the name changes to match as you described, however, I'm still unable to get Internet access on my vms. Aside from the network guys telling me an unintentional fib, is there some other possible reason for this issue?
Thanks,
Patrick

The network type should be bridged. I'd remove host-only and NAT if you
have them enabled for simplicity.
How are the Virtual Switch 1 & 2 values configured in the VM profile?
On the Summary page for the VMware host, what is listed under the Name
column under Networks? For VMware Server 2.x, the defaults are usually
"Bridged" and "Bridged (2)". Configure your VCL VM profile values to
match the values in the Name column, not the VMnet column.
Also, check the subnet mask and default gateway being assigned to your
images. Can you ping the default gateway?
