DHCP uses TCP/IP so it would seem that your networking is working and now you have a Windows configuration issue. My guess is that a Windows forum/list is now a better place to look for a solution. FYI, try pinging your router and /or also use that IP address in your virtual machines web browser to see if you can get the managment display. If both those work, you've got a DNS problem with Windows. > But surely the DHCP request has not failed since I do have an IP > address from the outside?? > > On Wed, 8 Aug 2007 21:11:27 -0600, Will Honea wrote: > > >** Reply to message from "Hakan" on Wed, > >08 Aug 2007 21:50:44 -0400 (EDT) > > > >Make sure the address assigned is within the appropriate range - Windows has a > >bad habit of quietly assigning a default IP if the DHCP request fails, leaving > >you to shouting into a black hole.. > > > >> I have Win 2000 running nicely under VPC 5.1 on eCS 1.2MR but am having > >> problems getting connected to the net.
