* I disable VMware NAT completely from within VMware Wkst (Edit –> Virtual Network Editor… –> NAT tab set pull down menu to “Disable”). □ (Edit –> Virtual Network Editor… –> Host Virtual Adapters Tab. It’s one less interface and one less route in the routing table to have to deal with. That may help with trying to figure all this out. * I actually remove the VMnet1 interface (host only), as I have never used it. I run FTP and TFTP (for PXE) off of that interface, so the NAT’ed VMs actually do interact directly with my Win7 host. * Create a firewall rule to allow all traffic from your VMnet8 Subnet to access the VMnet8 interface. I dont think the host octet of the IP address matters…windows just figures in the /24 of the IP address.Īlso, some other things I found and added to my “to do” list for Wkst on Win7: I changed it to 192.168.88.254 to match my needs. ![]() HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\services\sharedaccess\parameters (I use Wkst for testing PXE booting and other things where IPs and DHCP scopes and other things need to be consistent between re-installs…for most people the actual subnet is a moot point and 192.68.137.0 will work fine for them.) This allowed me to keep my desired subnet. To change the subnet, I tweaked a reg setting to the IP of the VMnet8 NIC. I am running it currently and have had to implement the above workaround to make NAT work. Just to confirm, this is still an issue in Win7 RTM. I wasnt even aware of this until a friend of mine forwarded it to me. Take also a look at this comment on how to use the vmnat.exe fromVMWare Player to fix the Problem. Note 3: no Windows Firewall changes are necessary Note 2: Windows 7 Beta seems to use 192.168.37.1 as IP für ICS. Note 1: Port forwarding has to be configured using the ICS Settings button, not the VMWare NAT-Dialog. If you have configured a fixed IP inside your VM you must change the IP4 Gateway and DNS1 to 192.168.137.1
