Hi,
I have Windows 8 and VMware Workstation 9.0.1.
My vmnet8 subnet IP address is set to 192.168.142.0
My guest VM IP address is 192.168.142.101
I can access internet from guest.
In my guest, I have a web app running at port 55000 and I can access this from host by using http://192.168.142.101:55000 - Work OK.
I need to be able to access this web app from other machines in internal network. So, I did port forwarding of 55000 to this guest VM using NAT option of vmnet8.
From my host, I can access http://localhost:55000 and it comes up immediately. But if I use IP address of the host which is 192.168.101.167, then it times out. So, http://192.168.101.167:55000 times out and it can not reach to the guest VM.
I turned off the Windows firewall but still can not access this.
I am missing something that I am not able to figure out. Can you please help?
Thanks
