Hi,
I've been fighting several times with vmware, having a lot of problems, then it happened I read an interview to the person who made the porting who declared that it was not fixed for 4.2 Stable (which I have), so I gave up.
Now after some cvsup, I'm trying again to build up vmware, so I 'made' it again, but this time giving a private IP ('cause I know that with FreeBSD it works only as a standalone host), so in /usr/local/etc/vmware/config I have these rows:
vmnet1.HostOnlyAddress = "192.168.0.1"
vmnet1.HostOnlyNetMask = "255.255.255.0"
the problem is that if I try to run vmware it finds that the IP of vmnet1 is the public one I gave the first time, as a matter of fact, this is the output of ifconfig:
koan@satori:~$ ifconfig vmnet1
vmnet1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 213.92.4.186 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 213.92.4.255
ether 00:bd:26:05:00:01
So, I changed it with ifconfig, but it will change again at the newt reboot, anyone knows how can I change it in a permanent way?
Thank you.
p.s. I beg pardon for my english...
