i m trying to install my project components for which i need to install RHEL 4, which i did using vmware. but it is not able to connect to network.
when i run %26quot;ifconfig%26quot; i see the ip address, but i don't know which address to be added to etc/hosts.
I could have use NAT to configure but my software doesn't support it, so i tried having bridge network.
Also let me know how to change domain name and hostname
Can any one give more info on this?Configuring network on vmware?
If you use bridged, vmware will get a additional ip from your network, if your network is not up, you will not be able to connect out side VM. so ensure that you are connected to a network.
Change the hostname/domain name in the file /etc/sysconfig/network
if u need to update immediately w/o restarting , after editing that file execute the below command.
hostname %26lt;new hostname%26gt;
domainname %26lt;new domainname%26gt;
