I am trying to get a (guest) VM running on my (host) machine to talk to a (remote) VM running God knows where on some server that is accessible via corporate VPN. I am able to SSH from the host to the remote machine and ping back and forth between host and remote machines while host is connected to the VPN. I am also able to ping remote machine from guest machine, and even SSH to it. But not vise versa - remote machine is unable to talk to the server running on guest. I have tried using both NAT and bridged network adapter settings on my VM, as well as messing with firewall settings on all 3 machines, up to turning it entirely off. What are your thoughts? Help would be greatly appreciated.
What kind of VPN are you using? And since I'm not great at VM, does the networking config bridge (or NAT to) the physical ethernet interface and not the internal logical VPN interface? – cpt_fink – 2014-11-20T00:45:24.927
Im using Cisco AnyConnect client. As for your other question - I honestly have no idea. I have a very limited understanding of virtualization. – user3746504 – 2014-11-20T00:51:08.780
Can you install the VPN client on the VM guest? – cpt_fink – 2014-11-20T04:16:33.907
Hypothetically - yes. But in order to do that Id need an installation package(?) or at least what ever information I need to set it up, which I naturally do not have. It seems like there should be an easier, more convenient way to share a VPN connection, especially since VMWare offers network adapter NAT setting. – user3746504 – 2014-11-20T06:12:58.023
