Hi All

I'm trying to build a Ubuntu VM on Hyper-V using the hyperv-iso builder. 
The VM starts correctly but the VM gets the wrong IP address for the local 
HTTP server. The console output says:

 OpsToolsBuild_Build_Pack_Packer_Run:
      Building 
E:\documents\Petrik\documents\operations\calvinverse\base.linux\src\ubuntu_1604\hyperv.json

I don't think 'False' is the correct IP address for my host machine.

My JSON file is:

and my additional configuration is

    "dir_scripts_user":

    "dir_temp_packer": 
"E:/documents/Petrik/documents/operations/calvinverse/base.linux/build/temp/packer"
}

I'm on a Windows 10 machine with two network cards, one for the machine 
itself and one for Hyper-V. The host machine has only got 1 IP address (not 
two).

Thanks

Petrik
