[DimaYasny]

can you ping the host from the guest? php is for another forum

[hirts_gal]

yes i can ping the host from the guest and vice versa but through wireless media only.thanks for your information about php. i have one question..is it possible for Cerberus FTP server software to detect guest vmware machines. because when i install that software it only detect my host computer only.

[DimaYasny]

of course it will not detect guest machines
you need an ftp daemon on the guest machine if you want ftp access there.

if there is a ping, then communication errors are gone, so you need to open a new thread for the php or ftp issue

[hirts_gal]

how to daemon ftp on the guest machine? Is it same as setting up ftp service in linux.

[DimaYasny]

yes it is

[hirts_gal]

thank you for your help. i can do it ready
