Yesterday I received some very helpful advice from your technician. I hope you
can answer these two questions today!
I am trying to configure Freebsd so that I can access it from my host PC, which
is Windows 7. Yesterday the technician told me to configure bridging in VMware
when I created the virtual Freebsd server. This worked fine, but I'm wondering
if there is a way to configure this outside of VMware. I tried this on a
Freebsd v8.2:
ifconfig bridge create
ifconfig bridge0 addm em0 addm em1 up #interface names are em0 and em1
But it did not work. I assigned an IP address to em0 but could not access it
from my Windows 7 host, although I could ping that address from the virtual
server (TCP/IP stack was working). Is there something else I need to do to get
this to work?
My second question is that this command is not in an older version of Freebsd
that I am using, v4.11. Do you have other commands to create a bridged
interface on this version?
Thanks for your help!
