Hello,
I have several VMs that I run as linux servers and problem is that I run them in the background and unless I log into them I can't determine the IP address the of the VM.
As you see that is a problem upon the first launch as I can ssh into them as I don't know the IP and even when I launch it as a foreground process at first the launch of the VM will fail as it has a pingback functionality based on it's name which I configure my mapping name/IP pair in the /etc/hosts of my host.
I know I could add a static mapping in the dhcp config however as I need to support VMware Workstation as well as Fusion to support I'm not sure if it works the same on both.
Now, my question is: can I somehow query the Fusion's (Workstation's) internal dhcp to show me "from the outside" which IP has been assigned?
Thanks,
Ingo.
