Slackware :: No Internet In VMware
Mar 18, 2011
I wanted to try Slackware on VMware just so I would know what it is and the differences between it and others. I installed it in VMware, and I am having two problems:
1. X does not start automatically for some reason.
2. I can't make the internet work. I tried typing knetworkmanager in terminal, but it tells me there is no such command. Then, I typed ifconfig in terminal, and it told me that wasn't a command either.
Did I install something wrong, or does Slackware KDE come with nothing in it?

I am using Fedora 13 vm on XP host. It has been working great until today. I am trying to browse websites, yum software, but they do not work.
Ifconfig shows 192.168.91.185 on eth0. The network seems to work fine when pinging the XP host at 192.168.91.38 and ping the router at 192.168.91.1.
However, ping google.com does not. I am not sure what i have done recently that causes this connection problem.

I want sound and internet access thru Linux using VMware. It will give me confidence to add it as a dual boot to my hard drive. I have sound and internet access thru Windows 7. I have sound thru the sound card test but I'm not able to hear cd's. I see the time elapsing thru the cd player but no sound.
I'm having problems with the network configuration, I get the message, "cannot activate the device etho:1 no link found". I have a DSL connect thru windows. Shouldn't I be able to get the internet thru VMware? If so how?

I am running a Ubuntu Linux VM using VMware Player on a Windows 7 host.
I don't want to connect directly to the network or use NAT; I need host-only networking but also need Internet access. How can I do this?

I am having some problems getting my Ubuntu connected to the internet via VMWare. I use a wireless internet connection on Windows 7, however when I boot Ubuntu, it tries to connect to a wired connection called "Auto eth0", It says that it is connected to "Auto eth0" but when I try to open Firefox, it tells me that I do not have an internet connection. I have tried setting up a wireless connection but that does not appear to work either.Is anyone here willing to help me take the necessary steps in order to get myself connected to the internet through my VMWare?

I have no internet in Linux due to my only way to get internet is through my blackberry curve phone sharing ( I think some call this tethering) internet to the pc. It works fine in winblows of course with the provided winblows software, so I booted over to Linux, fired up VMware workstation 6.5, set up the internet in it, and I have internet in my guest os in vmware which is 32 bit xp media center. I right clicked the connection from "network connections" and went to share this connection. Now I'd like to share it to my host os, 64-bit Ubuntu 8.10 in Raid 0. Do I need to be using NAT or Bridged. I've set up internet sharing before but not virtually.

At the moment I am installing a VMware Ubuntu machine. This machine has no internet connection.
I want to install wine, so I can install software that only runs under Windows.
I cannot find the packages to install wine under the VMware machine that will download to windows.
I have no clue on how to handle the source of wine, so I can download the source of wine, copy that to the VMware machine and use 'make' there.
How to proceed?
Ok, tried to compile source of wine on the VMware machine. It gave an error, since it was missing package flex. Compiling flex from source gave an error, since it was missing package m4. Trying to compile m4 gave an error, see make_install.log.
These were my steps:
Went to /usr/local/bin/ and unpacked m4 there.
Went into the m4 directory (m4-1.4.14).
/configure
make
make install
I can't get the configure log uploaded as an attachment, since it is too big. Splitting it into smaller sizes doesn't help either , since it will become more than 3 files (and 3 is the max to upload). If you want that log, please let me know and I will e-mail it to you.
What are my next steps to proceed? I want to compile the m4 package so I can proceed with flex.

I make no claims to be an expert. I am however a long time Slackware user, and have noticed a few posts concerning the ins and outs of previous how-to's on the same subject that are now outdated.
Keep in mind I take no responsibility for any damages to data, hardware, time, or liquor cabinets. Use at your own risk! So..
How to Install VMware Server on Slackware host
This is assuming you have a fresh full install of Slackware 13, I will be doing this install on a 64bit os, but the steps are relative and will also work on a 32.
STEP ONE- You are going to need pam to successfully authenticate on the web interface later, so take care of that first. There are a few different ways to go about this especially if you are on a 32bit install.
32BIT - You may go ahead and download the Linux-PAM package from a slacky repository.
[url]
OR - Of course you could build linux-pam from source, but I would recommend using src2pkg as it is easy, and outputs a tgz that you may install with installpkg. As I dont want to ramble forever Src2Pkg is the home to get it if you do not already have it. Once it is installed.....
cd /usr/src
Code:
These switches will delete the temporary files used during the creation of our package, and drop its output into our current directory.
Code:
Once that is done (as we wont really be using this file right now.) mv /etc/pam.d /etc/pam.ds
But we do need a pam.d directory for Vmware mkdir /etc/pam.d
We are now ready to install Vmware Server
STEP TWO- If you have not done so already, it is time to download the vmware archive. This requires signing up on their website, and it will provide you keys after email activation.
Now that we have the file, extract it
Code:
As slackware now contains an /etc/rc.d/init.d, vmware's installer will detect all the correct directories to drop files into. That includes autostart on reboot. Default's should be fine for everything in the main installer.
-PAUSE AT THE "run vmware-config.pl now?"
It is important to note, that if you are using 64 bit you will need to use a patch to fix a couple of modules. So when you get to the part where it asks to run vmware-config.pl now? Tell it "no" if you are 64bit. Yes should work for 32bit fine, and continue to creating virtual network devices, and input of serial number.
32Bit users, your adventure should be over. At this point you should be able to open a browser, point it at the machines lan ip address, external ip address, or localhost on port 8222. If you have problems and you did not run networkconfig during slackware setup, run it now, reboot and you should be fine. Sometimes fine tuning of /etc/hosts is needed depending on your network situation. 64Bit ... Sorry to say yes, we have to repair something before we can continue
First obtain the patch files from [url] once you have them, in the same directory they are located (even /usr/src is fine)
Code:
After this has finished patching, you may run vmware-config.pl to continue your installation.
Code:
If you have any error's check your /var/log/vmware directory, also make sure your /etc/hosts is valid.

I have annoying problem. My setup is the following: debian Linux, 64 bits, VMWare workstation 7 host, with Windows XP running as guest. From Firefox, or Internet Explorer, I am unable to access few sites, for example nvidia.com, osdir. Basically get connection timed out, on the other hand ping works to those sites. Moreover, Slashdot loads very very slow and sometimes gets horrible text-only version.
everything works fine on Linux host
I suspect it has something to do with routing on Linux, I recall having similar problem long time ago, which was fixed by setting something in /proc.
I tried setting MTU and TCP window size on Windows lower, but did not help

I have RHEL 5 installed on VMware 6.0 and the host OS is Windows 7. My Host is connected to internet using a wireless connection and works on shared IP. Earlier when I had Windows vista as host I have managed to get the internet connection on the RHEL but do not remember how I managed it. Now I need help in setting the internet connection on RHEL. I have set up a NAT connection. But of no use.

i'm attempting to configure the vmware server on the above mentioned system,without luck.i can't get the vmmon to compile. I have tried this out-dated guide [URL] but no luck. I have setup made the necessary links as explained in this guide [URL] I haven't managed to try out the any-any patch since no link to the patch is alive anymore.Since slack 13.37 is using 2.6.37.3 kernel I wonder if anyone has found a way to compile the vmware modules on these recent kernels.

I have a WindowsXP virtual machine which I need to isolate from the host machine completely (have the host act as a bridge but not be visible on the IP layer at all.) It still needs to have Internet access. Obviously it has to be able to contact the router but I would like to be able to block port 80 (or even just block all SYN packets addressed to the router.) I also want to allow port forwarding from the router to the virtual machine. I can use basic iptables but this is way beyond me.
The host OS is probably going to be Debian Lenny but this is not built yet so if someone can recommend a different distro which is as lightweight as possible but will support VMWare, iptables and tcpdump then that would be great. I was thinking of Slackware but I have not used it in ages and from what I can remember their is no real package management.

Slackware64 multi-lib from AlienBOB 13.1 can't compile VMware Server 2.0.2 build-203138
1. It does run wine 32 bit version ( a package called "64" bit, but there ain't no 64bit wine, right?)
2. It runs 32 bit programs in that wine.
3. It is vanilla 2.6.33.4 kernel 64bit so far.
Shall I go for VirtualBox or can I get VMWare to work any soon? I already did the VMware-server-2.0.2-203138-update-2.patch and got a bit further, but the build of the vmmon just "goes to pieces"?
Code:
make: Entering directory `/tmp/vmware-config3/vmmon-only'
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.33.4/build/include/.. SUBDIRS=$PWD SRCROOT=$PWD/. modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.33.4'

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 inside VMware Player running under Windows Vista and I can't connect to the internet or the host computer from the Ubuntu.
I have set all the VMware services to manual (like VMware DHCP Service), but starting them manually doesn't help.
In VMware, the network seems to work (there is a green dot beside the network icon) and I have tried both Bridged and NAT settings.
ifconfig doesn't show the eth1 interface, unless I give it as a parameter (or use -a). I think this means that Ubuntu thinks that the network isn't connected at all.
