| | VPC Connection issues Hi, I have an XP PC with VPC 2004 installed and have 3 virtual hardrives each with their own virtual machine. When i have one virtual machine running i can connect to it remotely, however when i boot the other 2 up i can no longer connect remotely. If i ping the ip address from a remote machine i get a 'timed out' response however if i ping from the host pc all 3 servers respond immeadiately. Is this a common issue or have i configured something incorrectly? I did wonder whether there was a limit on the number of concurrent machines/connections? Any help/advice appreciated. Cheers James |

You should also check the MAC addresses of each of the VMs and make sure that they are not the same. -- Cheers, Steve Jain, Virtual Machine MVP http://vpc.essjae.com/ I do not work for Microsoft. |

| | Re: VPC Connection issues Hi Steve, thanks for the response. We have 2 standard VHDs - one web server and one db server - and on the host pc there is 1 instance of the db server and 2 instances of the web server. I created the VMs using the wizard from the virtual pc console. I had a look at the physical addresses for each instance and all 3 were different.
