Do you have the screenshot saved locally? If so click the attach button when creating a new post in this thread and upload it.

Alternatively you could upload it to a image hosting site.

If you do not know how to capture a screenshot, bring the console screen that you are working up on your monitor and press the Print Screen key on your keyboard, then open paint "if using Windows." From here click Edit, then paste, then click file, and save the image as a .jpg/jpeg. Then attach as I indicated above.

It appears that for some reason, you were not assigned an IP address... Can you, please, run the following command as root in terminal, and show the output?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
Is your Network Adapter in VMware Player (or VMWare Workstation) set to "Bridged" or "NAT"?

We can see the screenshot, it does not appear that networking has been brought up on the box. Post the output of:

Code: Select all

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
ifconfig eth0
As lmiltchev asked, what network settings is your VM configured for? Bridged? NAT? None?

Could you post the output of the following commands (enter them into the command line interface) on the XI box?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
ifconfig eth0
You will probably have to run the following:

Code: Select all

ifconfig eth0 up
dhclient eth0
ping google.com
