Cannot Connect to Internet

[mossman]

I am using Windows XP and OS 10.6.3 on a MacPro Tower. I cannot connect to the internet on the
VM. Have tried ideas in other threads -- shared networking is enabled is Parallels. I have submitted a problem report. The id is ID 5807624.

Thanks for your help.

Have you got the DHCP server turned on for "Shared networking"? Have you tried "Bridged networking"?

 

[mossman]

I have tried bridged and the shared network options.

When you say -- turn on the DHCP server for shared networking. Where do you mean? I have been doing this in the Parallels (version 5) configuration screen. I also tried turning on share Internet in System preferences on the OS X side.
Nothing works.

This did not work in version 4 of my setup either -- a real pain.

Also some very glitchy startup issues -- it cant find my boot disk partition. Need to point things manually. Another real pain.

I do have the option click to enable DHCP server in the Parallels preferences section.

Same problem

I have the same problem since I have upgraded to Snow Leopard and Parallels 5. Nothing works Shared network, bridged network...
What do you mean by "turn on DHCP"? How do you do that?
Thanks for help
