Is DNS on your local network? IF yes try to ping the gateway, if that works, try to ping some punblic internet address for example 8.8.8.8. I would also check firewall rules (or ACL's) you have on your gateway are you sure that you allow traffic to port 80 from that server.With kind regards Krystian Zieja http://www.projectenvision.com Follow me on twitter My Blog Need help with your systems?

Hello, please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the problem machine and also describe how the virtual switch in ESXi is configured for the NICs.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

Hi, Did you get the same issue with other VMs running on the same EXS server? Can you ping any website from the problematic VM? Best Regards, Vincent Hu
