How to network to O/S in a virtual machine environment?

I am using microsoft virtual PCI have one windows server 2003 on one virtual machine and windows XP professional on the otherI would like to network the two machines together so i can practice using server 2003 as a domain controller.I am statically assigning IP addresses in the 192.168.x.x range under tcp/ip properties.In microsoft virtual machine i have assigned networking parameters as quot;localquot; for both machines (meaning the two machines do not use host machine for networking capabilites but only the virtual machines themselves) I try to ping each IP address and they do not communicateIf ANYBODY has any idea what i am talking about could you please helpI would be very gratefulThanks

Answer:

that got me thinking,the only thing that came out off my brain is some sort of heat transfer from the engine of the vehicles that do the distributionAnother thought,I did see a solar heater once that boiled water quickly,it was in the shape of a parabola and the solar radiation was concentrated to central pointgood luck
How did you setup the network controller on the virtual machines? If it's a NAT connection, manually assigning addesses will only work if you have the correct gateway, which is not going to be a 192 addressFrom what you say, you have essentially turned off networking for the virtual machinesYour best option is to add network cards to the machine for each VM, that way you can directly connect them to the network without having to bridge connections or deal with a NAT systemYou may also want to consider using Server 2008 instead, since it has a fairly different interface than 2003, and will soon be the standard.
