Speed-up and usage tips for IE6 in VirtualPC
Authored by: missinglina on Mar 16, '06 11:34:36AM

Dan, I know this post is old, but I just found it. I wonder why I can't connect the way you can. I can see the virtual pc in my Finder>Network,
I can browse on the virtual pc running Windows XP Professional just fine. I ran the ipconfig to find out its ip address. I enter that address in the remote desktop connection. In virtual pc settings, virtual switch is set to built-in ethernet. It gives you 2 choices: default or built-in ethernet. They both word as far as getting connectivity in the virtual pc. I'm using virtual pc 7 by the way and I'm on a dual G5.

I notice when I run the ipconfig that the default gateway is different from my router address, and the ip address is completely different from the mac's. The mac's starts with 172. XP' starts with 192. Is this the problem? Thanks for any help.
