In ESX, I export OVF of my VM (configured as dhcp). Then In another ESX, I use "deploy OVF template" from file menu. My new VM appears working, except I could not change the IP address and hostname.

VM: GuestOS: CentOS5.4 + my application

In the new VM's summary tub, IP Addresses: (dhcp address) DNS : xx-a50055

I changed:

/etc/sysconfig/network /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

I could not figure out what I have missed.

Thanks

Does it give you an error when you tried to change the IP address and host name? Can you paste the contents of the ifcfg-eth0 as well as the output of ifconfig -a? – Rilindo Oct 5 '11 at 2:29
Is this Ubuntu or another Debian based version of Linux? – Scott Warren Oct 5 '11 at 12:15
