X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 17 Aug 2003 20:15:38 -0000 Hello is there something wrong with the mail archive search scripts? I always seem to get 'list unavailable' :-( Anyway - 5_1 on Dell Latitude C640. the vmware3 port installs but the paths are a little odd - isoimages, licences are looked for in /usr/lib/vmware rather than /usr/local/lib.... I installed (w2k) a guest and it is fine but I cannot get networking host-only or bridge modes as the vmnet1 interface IP isn't found which indicates it hasn't found the config file in /usr/local/ - I tried sym-linking it to /etc/vmware/config but still no good. Anyone got it working? I suspect vmware2 might work - next plan.... Tantalisingly close to working... but of course after going in circles for a couple of hours I may have missed something obvious. thanks Neil -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr Neil J Long, Computing Services, University of Oxford 13 Banbury Road, Oxford, OX2 6NN, UK Tel:+44 1865 273232 Fax:+44 1865 273275 EMail: Neil.Long@computing-services.oxford.ac.uk PGP: ID 0xE88EF71F OxCERT: oxcert@ox.ac.uk PGP: ID 0x9FF898D5
