It is Host Only Networking, please switch to Shared Networking from VM window - Configure - Network Adapter 1

 

About Parallels shows version 4.0.3810 (December 30, 2008)
Have changed Configuration ->VM Network Adaptor 1 to "shared networking, still unable to connect to the internet. Also have removed all known internet security programs.

What can I try next?

Macintosh:~ steveschklar$

 

Mac OS configuration is OK,
Try to remove parallels Internet security temporary, or install firefox, check can you access internet without PIS, or with firefox

 

removed PIS and Parallels tools. Was able to connect with internet thru Firefox.
reinstalled Parallels tools. Still o.k.
Should I reinstall PIS now?

 

Try to install it back, set firewall to training level

 

Same Problem - No internet connection on VM side

I am trying to reestablish internet connection on VM side (Parallels 4.0.3810 running Windows XP Pro SP3) Macbook Pro 1.93 GHz Intel Core Duo 1.5GB 66 MHZ DDR2 SDRAM

Here are the results of my tests:
MAC side
rob-humphreys-computer-1824:~ Rob$ ipconfig -a
usage: ipconfig <command> <args>
where <command> is one of waitall, getifaddr, ifcount, getoption, getpacket, set, setverbose

Windows XP Side
C:\Documents and Settings\Rob H\ipconfig /all

Windows IP Configuration


That's it. I need help reestablishing the connection. Currently Network Adaptor 1 is configured to Shared Networking

 

On mac side you need to run ifconfig -a

 

How do I set firewall to training? In windows? Mac? PIS?

Thanks

Steve
