No Network after import Appliance to new computer

Post by jochen69 »

Hallo,

Using Host WIN 7 64 BIT and VB 4.1.12.
Guest is WIN XP SrvPack 3

On an older hardware my guest was running under network configuration
- network bridge
- pcnet-fast III
- promiscuous-modus deny

I export applance and import it to new hardware. I get no network anymore. VB changed the network card name automatically and when i try on guest WIN XP ipconfig /all i get
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\jochen>ipconfig /all

Windows-IP-Konfiguration

I would expect that the host NIC named for bridged networking no longer exists, and that a new name needs to be selected. This kind of thing may be expected to arise when moving a VM between hosts.
