hey

Im using vmware workstation and have installed server 2008 on it with no problems. In the network editor in vmware I'm using a vmnet01 custom network (see attachment).

I've also given the server a static IP of 192.168.0.2. but its showing as limited connectivity?

any reasons why this is happening?

Host only, so it reports as connected to a device, but unable to access intarweb.

 

Because you have nothing routing between that network and the internet
use NAT or Bridged if you want easy access to the internet
or if you want a purely private network but internet access, you need a device with two NICs, one on VMnet0 and one bridged that can act as a router/NAT/Firewall device

 

okay thanks. thats okay I intend not to use internet. everythings as I expected then :P I thought that it should atleast say i'm connected to my domain.
