    VMWare Server on CentOS - help

    I'm trying to install VMware-server-1.0.9-156507.i386.rpm on CentOS 4.7 x86_64 and running into some challenges.

    After downloading and unpacking, I ran ./vmware-install.pl on the local server's console and took all defaults (except for directory Virtual Machine I instead used Virtual_Machine, note the underscore).

    I also had vm images I brought overfrom another machine, created directories under Virtual_Machine and unpacked the images into separate directories.
    The above was all performed locally at the server, and I had to leave. My plans were to ssh into a gateway then ssh into the box to finish configuring it but I'm running into a few issues.

    Now here's my dilema as I have been trying this remotely;
    • my vm host has an internal IP that I can access from another machine via ssh
    • One of my vm images needs to be accessible from the internet and both the internal and externally natted IPs for this image are configured in my firewall.
    • My challenges are related to setting up the "internal" IPs for my vm images, how do I "enable" my client images and set my IPs for the client images?
    • Do I bring up a console or management UI to "manage" this, I've not been able to

    Any assistance is greatly appreciated

    Thanks!

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Shouldn't you be asking these questions on the VMware user forums or support pages? I'm sure these topics are well covered there.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
