[solved] 10.5.3 + Parallels 3.0 (5604) + kubuntu 8.04 = no network
I've been banging my head against a brick wall - regardless of any of the 'fixes' described. I've tried 3.0 builds 5600, 5602, 5604 all with the same issue.
I've tried uninstalling, repairing permissions, removing directories, rebooting then reinstalling then repairing permissions again - all with the same result - no network connectivity with kubuntu.
My MBP is running 10.5.3 (2.4Ghz Santa Rosa, 4GB, 8600M GT 256MB) .
kubuntu ifconfig is showing no ethernet connectivity (eth1) without an assigned IP address. It just has a MAC address. No eth0 (which is odd) and the loopback 'lo' is present.
Parallels is showing NAT and Guest OS network preference entries with a green light. The "DHCP" is return 10.x.x.x subnet for those components. The wireless network is actually 192.x.x.x.
The parallels NAT is showing it has a 'self assigned IP' which obviously is incorrect - almost like it's DHCP is not working.
Parallels network configuration option (with the VM not started) has the networking enabled and 'connect on start up' as ticked.
The gateway and DCHP server for that subnet is showing only the MacBookPro being the only DHCP client active - on WiFi or standard copper RJ45.
What is interesting is that the en2 & en3 connection created as part of installing Parallels are showing up with ifconfig in Darwin but do not have IP addresses assigned.
This is the same for all of the types of network also if I manually configure without DHCP enabled.
Parallel Tools has installed correctly and works with KDE 3.5 as part of the kubuntu 8.0.4.
I'm baffled (degree in software engineering and over 15 years industry).. is this something simple I'm missing?
Alternatively is there any log file that I can post up (I can do the dumps from ifconfig if you want but I think the gist from above is that there's no assigned IP connection..).
Any suggestions?
