VPC Connection issues

Hi,

I have an XP PC with VPC 2004 installed and have 3 virtual hardrives each
with their own virtual machine.

When i have one virtual machine running i can connect to it remotely,
however when i boot the other 2 up i can no longer connect remotely. If i
ping the ip address from a remote machine i get a 'timed out' response
however if i ping from the host pc all 3 servers respond immeadiately.

Is this a common issue or have i configured something incorrectly? I did
wonder whether there was a limit on the number of concurrent
machines/connections?

Any help/advice appreciated.

Cheers
James

If so,there's the problem.

You should also check the MAC addresses of each of the VMs and make
sure that they are not the same.

Hi Steve, thanks for the response.

We have 2 standard VHDs - one web server and one db server - and on the host
pc there is 1 instance of the db server and 2 instances of the web server. I
created the VMs using the wizard from the virtual pc console.

I had a look at the physical addresses for each instance and all 3 were
different.
