Problem - VMware - Windows 2008 R2 - Internet connection
Hi guys.
Im very new to VMware, so the answer might be super easy or I might need to give you more info.
I use VMware Workstation 8.0.1.
I have installed 2 windows 2008 R2 machines in VMware.
Server 1: DHCP, DNS, AD
Server 2: DNS, AD - Neither is installed on server 2 yet.
Server 1: IP: 192.168.100.5 - DNS: 8.8.8.8
Server 2: IP: 192.168.100.6 - DNS: 8.8.8.8
I used 8.8.8.8(google DNS) for the AD, so it was autoset as DNS in the server role for DNS.
I have 8.8.8.8 set manually aswell in the LAN for the NIC.
The Network connection settings I use in VMware are:
Bridged: Connected directly to the physical network
and I have the box checked for "Replicate physical network connection state"
I tried running dcpromo on server 2 and add it to an existing forrest(server 1). But I get an error, an DNS error, cant connect to the existing forrest.
And to the second and more important problem. I cant seem to connect to the internet on either machine.
What settings should I use? Am I doing something wrong with the DNS or the settings in vmware?
Im very thankfull for all help.
Regards
Greatness
