vmware issue with the virtual nics
We have vmware server 2 installed on a windows server running 2003.
After installation of vmware server 2.0 it created 2 virtual NICs:
vmnet1 = 192.168.35.1
vmnet8 = 192.168.94.1
The host has a static IP address of 192.168.1.11
my problem is in our active directory domain, there are 3 dns records for this server, the main ip address and the ip from vmnet1 and vmnet8. My problem is sometimes computers are trying to resolve the dns name of the server and its going to vmnet1 and then timing out..
How do I prevent this from happening? how do i make vmnet1 and vmnet8 transparent from the real network?
Thanks,
Brad Nelson
