Both host an guest will look like two separate machines on the LAN. If the host does not have a network connection you will need to set up a Microsoft Loopback Adapter and set the NIC in the vm to use that network. You will find instructions on how to install a MLA in the help files on the host. |

But, I count not. From guest to host is fine. I guess it's some setting, tried a few things, not working. Thanks, George |
