... Hi there thank you for the great write up on this. I have followed method 1 and 2 and still no network. I checked my vmx file and it changed the e1000 back to vlance. Should I be added an additional ethernet0.virtualDev="e1000"??? And when I went on to the third method when I put in ifconfig en2 up it says "en2 does not exist". Can you help? I am using JAS 10.4.8 and followed your installation guide for vmware. Thank you. |

... For information and illustration purposes, this is where I think the problem lies:- http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/3007/macmacib3.png Assuming BBCode is enabled for posts here, if not just copy and paste the url. OS X reads the MAC (NIC address) as null. This is not how it's set in VMWare. (VMWare allocates a random MAC when you create the virtual NIC in the machine settings. Once upon a time a MAC address was determined by a Manufacturer code plus the production number, or serial of the card. MAC addresses where distributed in blocks, like IP ranges to ISPs. The limit of MAC addresses ran out a long time ago.  And since there are many many more possible MAC addresses than IPs, people can see why we need to change to IPv6) BTW: Sorry for the double post, I'm not sure how that happened. |

... bobosol, Hey, Sorry, BBCode IS enabled here but I had to remove the direct image and instead put a link because the image was causing width problems on the page. Anyway, you are right, OS X reads the MAC adress as 0s. To fix it you run this command in Terminal: ifconfig en0 ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx And replace the string of x's with the actual MAC address assigned by VMware (can be obtained from the VMX file). |

said:

... Directly after issuing the command, I get correct response from ifconfig:- lo0:flags=8049mtu 16384 etc. However Safari cannot connect, Ethernet is still media disconnected and the System Preferences Network tool still shows 00:00:00:00:00:00. I tried rebooting, but that seems to reset the Terminal mode too. Is this because of elevated privileges? You can't ifconfig unless you "su" up, and if you do, are you only modifying the properties for the root/wheel user, and not your local admin user? Just a thought, though I have no idea how to get around it if that is the problem. Edit: I think I disproved that theory by checking again on a non-su terminal. It read back fine, but only till reboot. So maybe this needs to be done somewhere more permanently, as a part of the boot process. Or maybe I'm clutching at straws... so close, yet so far away. |

... Same here. JAS 10.4.8 , I have a green status with IP and DNS via DHCP. Bridged mode. The driver, etc. Can ping windows host and the host can ping it. But MAC is all 00's even when trying to manually set it in the terminal. Funny thing is that in terminal, I can ping www.google.com and it properly resolves, but of course eventually times out. |

... I was having no end of dramas but this was because i doing the wrong thing. Im no VMWARE expert i have only been using it today with this OSX thingy. the e1000 statement worked beautifully, but there are a few things (correct me if im wrong) that make this work. 1. edit the right configuration tool - the VM config you want to edit is the one in its default location, not where you edited the RAR files, if the statement isnt there that specficies the device id, then add it as mentioned in the tutorial. 2. This "e1000" statement is a statement that reflects the driver set for the intel 1000mbps nic's, if you do not have the drive i hope im correct in saying that there is no chance it will work. great work pcwiz i would be very interested to see some more of the in's and outs of how all this works, and if it is a driver issue for the network card its a matter of people knowing their device names , e100 as opposed to e1000 and so on. lastly, i am wondering if other devices can be ported to OSX the way the optical drive and ethernet card is, seeing as though its device reliant, if you could get VMWARE to parse the phyical device to mac, then use the mac drives, you could pretty much make the whole pc a MAC and never worry about windows again, if you have legacy products that you cant live without that is enough rambling, hooroo people! |

... bow to pcwiz and for other who shared their knowledge in this site. i have manage to install tiger (Jas 10.4.  using VMWARE 6.0 and follow the guide (as mention by pcwiz). i got no network connectivity when the osx boot at 1st time, but i know the ethernet is working fine. then i follow sean guide using his step on how to fill the mac address into the en0 device. but same result. not working. and then i edit the Ethernet at the VMware machine change to NAT. Start the osx , and look at the preferences. still not working. and then i click the ethernet icon at the right bottom on VMware console screen and change the type to Bridged. Suddenly the network is working. in summary (at my case) Ethernet: - Host-only not working - NAT not working - Bridged working good |

... Oh, and I'm running the Leopard 10.5.2 with NAT/Bridged/or Host -only. Once I switched to NAT and then installed the kext and it showed up in the ifconfig. I then had to set the MAC and it was up and running. However, after reboot, the kext errors out, and setting the MAC does nothing. I'm trying to switch to another Network type as that seemed to help last time and see. |

I've tryed all of the methods above and none of them works... OS X gives me constantly the message - "PPOe server not found" , or something like that. My brain is constantly in the VMX file but no luck... What type of connection should I pick when installing Mac OS X ? (the installer, maybe there I messed up, reinstalled with another option no luck too) Using Vista and the internet works like a charm, the ethernet device is also connected but Mac reports that he didn't found any. |

Hi everyone, I tried everything to put this 10.4.8 on my network in order to have internet connection through my host OS but nothing so far. .Network Diagnostics: I got some green bullets but I believe the problem is the MAC ADDRESS.

... with VM powered off I changed the first nic to NAT in VMware. I added a second nic that is bridged and powered on the VM. After the machine booted I opened up terminal and typed ifconfig. en0 showed mac still 00:00:00:00:00:00 but en1 looked fine. I opened the network from system preferences and a pop up apeared that en1 has been detected, check settings and click apply. I added my search domains and clicked apply and the network started working. maybe this may work for others |

Giorgio
said:

... The only method that worked for me was the following 1. put in the vmx file the ethernet = e1000 sg line 2. Set the Network adapter to NAT! 3. After that go to Network in System Preferences and the Assistant autodetected the internet. Right away Safari loaded the page it could not display before. Not sure why it worked like this but it did, and it shows that many of us will have to try every psssible combo to get this to work, as for me none of the published solutions worked. |

... To understand what to do and why you must know the VMware a little bit deeper. There are several types of virtualized network adapters in there - the main two, exactly emulating the real-world physical adapters are the Intel "e1000" adapter and AMD PCnet "vlance" one. To be short - the first one does not work with OSX, it is detected by OS, configured, but works only on first boot, then it loses the ability to correctly sense the cable status and therefore does not work, with or without the correct MAC address. To enable networking you need the "vlance" virtual adapter type (default for VMware Workstation 6.5, but optimized for compatibility, not for performance) and Maxxus driver 1.043. Follow the instructions in README file and you'll get the functional network. |
blackbird714
said:

... I agree with Oleg's assessment of the e1000 driver being problematic... however, I have found the existing documentation and comments here to be incomplete, at least in my specific situation. Here are my software versions: VMWare Workstation 5.5 (latest available version 5.5.9 build-12612 OS X 10.5.2 as packaged by PCWIZ (downloaded back in August 200 When I first downloaded the image, the OS booted up with no problems, but like lots of others here, I never could get networking to work. I tinkered with it on and off for a few days, and finally gave up. Without a working network connection, it was pointless for me to proceed. Something made me think of my failed OSX/VMWare project earlier today, so I started tinkering again. I reset the image back to a clean disk, and followed all of the posted how-to's listed here (using the e1000 driver)... and once again to my frustration, no network connection. However, for short while after the NIC was detected, it looked like it worked long enough for DHCP to get an IP address for my NAT'd VMWare subnet -- but I couldn't get a route out to the internet. I thought maybe it just needed a reboot... but from that point forward, en0 was completely dead. The MAC was all zeros as others have observed. I tried some of the suggestions, rebooted a bunch of times, no dice. So I spent a little more time on the drivers provided by Maxxuss-AMDPCNET-v1.0_1043.iso. One thing I noticed is even after installing the Maxxuss driver, the only network driver that was getting loaded was: AppleIntel8254XEthernet.kext The Maxxuss driver wasn't being loaded at all. I could manually load it, but it didn't change the networking situation. So I: kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Content/PlugIns/AppleIntel8254XEthernet.kext kextload /path to Maxxus driver/Maxxuss-AMDPCNET.kext ... and I noticed something that surprised me (I'm a OSX n00b so bear with me). When I ran 'ifconfig' the en0 adapter disappeared from the interface list. This would support the general theory that others have thrown out there that the Maxxus driver just isn't binding to the NIC, thus the blank MAC address value. So this sent me down a different path entirely. I had previously tried loading the VM without the e1000 driver statement in the vmx file -- but VMWare always complained about the 'vlance' driver being incompatible with a 64-bit guest OS. And when I changed the guest OS config to FreeBSD (32-bit), then VMWare greeted me with an ominous message that I was trying to load a 64-bit OS in a 32-bit system. Previously I had retreated at this point... but this time I pressed forward in desperation, but I fully expected the OS to panic during boot. To my surprise... the OS loaded just as before with no obvious ill effects. When it booted, I went into System Preferences/Network -- and this time, like the first time I loaded with the e1000 driver, it detected a new NIC! So I had the original busted en0, and a new en2 interface. I set it to DHCP, and hit the Apply button... and after a few seconds, it had an IP address. Then I opened Safari... and viola! I got to the Apple website for the first time. One thing I did not test is VMWare configured for "vlance" drivers without the Maxxuss driver installed. I'm not sure if one of the built-in drivers would step in and get the job done. So to summarize, here are the only settings that I put into my .vmx file: ethernet0.present = "TRUE" ethernet0.connectionType = "nat" The first time it starts up, VMWare will add the ethernet0.addressType, ethernet0.generatedAddress, and ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset ... but you don't need to mess with those. Also I changed this setting: guestOS = "freebsd-64" ... to: guestOS = "freebsd" VMWare complained, but I checked the box to not warn me anymore and hit Ok. Once the the system booted, I ran the install.sh from: Maxxuss-AMDPCNET-v1.0_1043.iso Then I went into System Preferences/Network, and added the newly detected interface (en2). The only other bit of housekeeping that I did was remove the dead en0 interface from System Preferences/Network -- but that isn't really necessary. Anyway, I hope this helps someone else get their networking up and running. Thanks to PCWIZ, Oleg, and all of the others that have posted their findings... I couldn't have made it this far without you!! |

... For those who wants networking in 10.4.8 (or Tiger), and who are using VMware Server 2.0 (the latest version as of Jan/2009), you might have had the same problem as me: en0 does not up and mac address is 00:00:00:00:00:00. DHCP does not work. NAT does not work, Host-only does not work. Or it works just briefly and goes dumb. I solved this problem by using VMware Palyer 2.5.1 (the lastest version as of Jan/2009). In fact, I tried all methods when I was using the Server, but nothing worked, and the Tiger was very slow (mouse was lagging too). I didn't mean to fix networking by changing VMware but I just wanted to make it faster. So, I changed Server to Player, then boom! I found that en0 is up, so I configured networking (I'm using NAT for management issue), and everything is working very smoothly. If I have a VMware hard disk image (vmdk file), I think using Server is not a good choice. Player is much better (if you can edit vmx file). |
Oleg Kirillov

... Affirmative. It's the nature of the products. VMware Workstation (and it's cut-down version - Player) is optimized to run desktop operating systems - with performance-optimized graphics and local inputs. It's also supports widest range of hardware resources for the guest OSes, but emulation operates through host OS support. Server is not optimized for console operations - it's optimized for network and storage I/O performance. Console emulations put severe performance penalty on the Server, so it's recommended to use remore consoles (i.e. via network). It also supports less hardware than Workstation/Player - again via host OS. VMware ESX supports only its HCL-listed hardware, and again optimized for net&storage I/O but emulation excludes host OS so it is faster than Workstation/Server. |

... @ Oleg & blackbird: re. "guestOS" parameter serves only to hint the VMware what ISO image of VMware Tools to mount when you pick the "Install VMware Tools" option in menu. Nothing more. Therefore you can safely put even "MS-DOS" there with no negative impact. Any GuestOS setting other than "winnt" causes an OS X install which enters infinite reboot situation on my system. Therefor GuestOS must make more changes to the emulation that simply to hint which CD to connect for Guest Tools install. Also "freebsd-64" or "freebsd" are not a workable option on my setup.

It is my understanding, that there is an issue with Core2 processors, which the setting "winnt" shields the guest from... whatever, it is the only option I can use with this image. |

... I suppose something screwed up in your install. ACE is not a separate product, but Workstation option. Version 6.0 is outdated and here's the potential incompatibility with Vista x64. I run my 6.5 on XP x64 SP3/6600 Quad Core and no matter what I set as guestOS, VM (10.5) works. This setting really has some meaning for ESX - it helps with Transparent Page Sharing/Memory Overcommitment, but it's not the case. 2kbock - read my message on Jan, 28 - you need to set the virtual ethernet type to "vlance" and install Maxxus driver 1.0_1043. |

... mmm... I think it's not the correct place to tell the full story about VMware WS architecture but you can believe me that VM knows absolutely nothing about your computer's hardware, except CPUID info. WS, in turn, uses host OS HAL and therefore knows nothing about chipsets. Incompatibilities come from host OS side. You can try to install OSX natively, it's not an option for me as I'm just experimenting with PCWIZ's VM. |

... For those of you who did not succeed with any method: make sure you have the latest version of Vmware Workstation installed. I tried everything with Workstation 6.0 and did not succeed, after I upgraded to 6.5 the network worked like a charm from the first try. |

... After many days trying on VmWare Workstation and always getting the ethernet address 00:00:00:00:00, I change for VmWare Player and it's working at the first try. Thanks a lot blackbird714 for your idea. |

... Thanks blackbird714! I also had the problem where Leopard said the en0 interface was not present. Your suggestion to put ethernet0.present = "TRUE" and ethernet0.connectionType = "nat" in the configuration file did the trick. This is what I did : - add the 2 settings in the VMWare vmx config file - reboot the OS - go to the terminal - sudo -s - ifconfig en0 ether - reboot the OS (maybe not needed) - go to the System Preference menu - select Network - select Ethernet in the left panel - the OS detects the network - close the Network menu Now it worked for me. Maybe it is the VMWare Player that needs those 2 settings. |

... I tried the methods on this page with the pcwiz-Leo 10.5.2 vm image. None worked, but turns out none was needed - all I had to do is set VMware to use NAT, and it works. Leopard still says "cable unplugged", but the network is there. |

said:

... Follow up to yesterday's note: my luck with NAT seems to be related to also adding the adapter in Network Preferences (in OS X) - after restoring the image (not even a reboot) it didn't work. A little trial and error shows that adding/removing the adapter on the VMware side and adding/removing the adapter on the OS X side, gets back to the 'network is working with cable unplugged' state. I'm not sure if you need to do both. |

... I have figured out how to get internet working.... Edit your Virtual Machine settings for Your Virtual Mac, then select "Ethernet" and change your configuration from (NAT) or (Host-only) or which ever you have, and change it to "Custom: Specific Virtual Network" and in the combo box select the first option which is "VMnet0" and then fire-up your virtual mac and BAM! you got internet.... In case you run into a problem...I should let you know that my Real computer is connecting to the internet via Ethernet NOT Wireless.... |

... I have spent hours on this. I realized I used the wrong driver, but even know with the correct driver, I cannot get en0 or en1 etc to say anything other than device does not exist. Under network diag, ethernet failed. under system pref-> network I get no locations and no objects. I have tried virtualDev vlance, e1000 and deleted. Problem is, I have tried so many things and various reinstalls i cannot be sure combos with which driver (kext) I did. Has anyone got this to work on 10.5.6 osx and vmware 6.5.2? |

... I got it to work with blackbird714's Guide, but much simpler. I got the 10.5.2 image with Workstation 6.5 - Add a new bridged adapter (VMWare will add a new config to the .vmx with the e1000 setup) - Boot OSX - OSX will find a new adapter (en0) but will say "cable not connected" - Shutdown OSX - Change the adapter config to "vlance" instead of "e1000" - Mount the Maxxuss iso and boot the VM - Open a terminal and execute ifconfig - OSX will find no "en" adapter - Copy the the directory from the mounted CD to your VM - Change to that directory in the terminal - Execute "sudo ./load.sh", this will load the Maxxuss kext - Go to System / Network, delete your previously found adapter and add a new one - This time the adapter will work and be able to connect to the network - To do this permanently use install.sh instead of load.sh |

... I'd already bought a Macbook white, but unfortunately It was stolen (The thieves only left the box with Serial numbers and charge power connectors). I tried this tutorial and it seems the only way network works for me is using NAT (share host's IP) configuration in VMWare Settings - but it works! I want to thank you all for posting this material. It's a treasure. |

... I found that if you use a static ip the networking with work without a problem.. dhcp worked the first time but not since. I think it probably has to do with MAc address on the router but do not like figuring it out. |
Family Keylogger
said:
|
... Family Keylogger is a software program or hardware device that is used to monitor and log each of the keys a user types into a computer keyboard. The user who installed the program or hardware device can then view all keys typed in by that user. Because these programs and hardware devices monitor the keys typed in, a user can easily find user passwords and other information a user may not wish others to know about. |
