Make sure that the virtual machine network adapter is enabled: launch Parallels Desktop for Mac, click the Network Adapter link in the main configuration window to open its settings. Make sure that the Enabled and Connect cable at startup options are selected in the Device Status area. Under the Emulation section select the Bridged Ethernet option and choose Default Adapter or any other Mac network connection interface that is connected to the network. Another way is to try Apple Internet Sharing service to connect the VM to the network: in the Emulation area select the Host-only networking option. Then Open Mac OS X System Preferences - Sharing - Internet, select your network connection interface in the Share your connection from drop-down list, enable the Ethernet Adapter (en2) (number after en depends on your Mac configuration) in the To computers using list, click the Start button. When finished restart your Mac. _________ Shanjoyb
