    WinServer 2003`s Network on Virtual PC does not work !

    Hi all,

    I have a Virtual PC 2007 installed on XP Professional running 2 Virtual
    Operational System: Win Server 2003 Enterprise Edition Evaluation Version
    (those that comes with Microsoft Official Course) and XP Professional SP2. As
    long as I have everything running on my laptop, I set my only network
    interface (NVIDIA nForce Network Controller) for both Virtual OS. XP pings
    very well on WinServer 2003... but Win2003 gets "request time out" when I
    ping from 2003 to XP. One thing that is burning my head is... I set up
    WinServer 2003 as DHCP server and beleive or not when XP requests an IP
    address WS2003 releases one. Can anybody tell me what to do ?

    Thanks all

    Hardware:



    HP Notebook DV2000 Series.

    AMD Turion 64 X2, 2GB Ram, NVIDIA nForce Network Controller

    By default, the WinXP firewall will block pings. Have you checked the
    XP firewall?
