vmware conversion, lost network

Great, thanks for the step-by-step. For your reference, you can remove the udev rules for eth0 to force new rules to be made, essentially allowing your new interface to be named eth0 (as converting the vm caused the kernel to see you interface as a new one).

As your config is working, you do not need to do this, but I thought I would just let you know for future CentOS rollouts.

Code: Select all

vim /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

Comment out any lines pertaining to eth0 and restart udev (or reboot the box).

Thanks. I'll resist the temptation to mess with it again now!

You know what they say about idle hands. . . .

Locking thread. Cheers.
