I have two VM's on my machine, both Windows 7 Pro. One is a MySQL server and one is running Apache 2.0. Essentially they mimic a split webserver/database setup. On XP this was fairly easy. However it is proving a lot more difficult.
I found this which I had already done most of except for the adding the ip addresses to the hosts file, but even with that I cannot get the machines to see each other.
I can ping the machines from the host machine, but only if I am pinging the primary connection. Pinging the secondary connection fails. Pinging the other VM from either the VM's fails (and I am running the command prompt as Admin) on either connection.
Any ideas?
Update: What I would like is a step-by-step guide. I can't be the only one who has 2 Windows 7 Pro VM's on their machine can I?
