Changing IP Address within VMWare Snapshot Image
Hi,
I have VMWare image snapshots that were created within a different network environment. I would like to take this snapshot images and port it to customers network.
Here is the synopsis:
The current IP address is within 10.8. subnet range.
The customers IP address is in a completely different subnet range.
The question is how can I change the IP address within VMWare snapshot so that the through program control, the application can be accesses within the same the same network as the customer.
Please help! This is very important for the pilot I am trying to set up.

BestWay: In Network Connections settings within Windows OS installed as guest opertating system, there is only one icon. Add New Connection wizard.
I don't think I need add new connection.

OK assuming you have the VMtools installed, Assuming your network adapter is active but you don't have a valid IP..
Use the netsh command to script the ip change.

This is exactly i need help with. What I have is a snapshot of pre-configured network settings with specfic DHCP and Subnet address. I need to change this to match to that of customer's network settings. This will allow them to access my VMWare image from their corporate network for development purposes.
BestWay: Based on your explanation I tried what you suggested and then as I got to the last paragraph "...Only after you change the IP or the machine name, you can enable the network adapter..."
You lost me. That "is" the question; how do I change the IP address for what you suggested. so that the guest sesion is part of the external networks.
However, I do sincerely appreciat your support on this.
