Thread: 2x 10.04 server x64 inside VMware Workstation behind NAT loosing DNS settings on FTP?


ok... heres setup... on private server, per friends request have 2 separate virtual machines, both ubuntu 10.04 64bit linux servers. windows 7 64bit host, connected directly router.

lets refer systems host names.

webserver: (ubuntu 10.04 server x64, setup ssh, lamp, , proftpd)
network adapter: vmware nat translation;
  • ip: static
  • address: 192.168.2.5
  • netmask: 255.255.255.0
  • network: 192.168.2.0
  • broadcast: 192.168.2.255
  • gateway: 182.168.2.1


resolve.conf: nameserver 192.168.2.1
ipv6: disabled

ports forwarded machine:
http port: 80
ssh port: 22
ftp: 21

ircserver: (ubuntu 10.04 server x64, setup ssh, lamp, , unrealircd \w anope)
network adapter: vmware nat translation;
  • ip: static
  • address: 192.168.2.8
  • netmask: 255.255.255.0
  • network: 192.168.2.0
  • broadcast: 192.168.2.255
  • gateway: 182.168.2.1


resolve.conf: nameserver 192.168.2.1
ipv6: enabled (disabled on webserver because getting flooded no ipv6 routers present errors along disconnection)

ports forwarded machine:
ssh port: 2222
unrealircd: 6667


desktop:
windows 7 x64
8gb ram
2.2ghz phenom 9550 quad-core
marvell yukon 88e8071 pci-e ethernet controller


problem randomly, 1 of servers loose connection (hardly ever happens ircserver, not sure causes it). webserver loose connection when try login ftp, (filezilla desktop, connecting 127.0.0.1). no additions dmesg, ifconfig eth0 says still up, , ip 192.168.2.5 (.8 ircserver), , if $host google.com fails error:
code:
;; connection timed out; no servers reached
edit: thought useful add that, fix this, have sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

(mind you, http://127.0.0.1/ points webserver fine!)

missing somthing here? stuff, have been using ubuntu 4+ years. , google longer, have feeling right in front of me, don't see it.

input highly appreciated.
