With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

esxi server network issues

Asked by ihmedia in Hypervisor, VMware

Hi

I have a new server with esxi server on it, we only have one nic on it and i have setup an xppro virtual machine for testing before i deploy a sbs 2008 server on it.

Xp seems to run great on the virtual desktop but we seem to have networking issues, i have mapped a network share and its very slow accessing it, it takes seconds to draw the file list and when i copy i end up with cannot read from the source file or disk errors.

I would guess something is up with the nic setup on the node.

can anyone give me any ideas?

This is an ipconfig/all from the virtual xp machine.
