RC1 : Host-Only Networking - No DNS servers obtained; Only DHCP Address obtained.

Hi,

I am really impressed with the speed of fixes and features being churned out by the
Parallel's team ! Kudos !

I downloaded RC1 yesterday and noticed that my Audiovox SMT5600 is now able to
Sync with Outlook/Exchange via its USB connections ! COOL !

On the other hand, I have issues with Networking (which were not there in Beta6) :

(1) As reported in another thread, the guest VM steals the Host's IP address.
I read Andrew's thread on this that it will be fixed in RC2. When can we expect that to
come out ?

(2) I did not find anyone have the following issue so wanted to know if I am doing something
wrong or is this *really* a bug in RC1 :

If I use Host-Only networking, so that I don't have to open VPN connections to my work
from within the Host and Guest VM separately, I see the following behaviour after setting it
up using the FAQ published on another thread :

The guest in Host-Only mode, gets an IP address 10.37.129.3 but does not know what
DNS servers to use. Hence, it is not able to go to any website :
www.parallels.com. It will only go to the IP address. I think this needs to be fixed.

Or, do I need to explicitly set the DNS servers to use ?

Any comments/solutions will be appreciated.

Thanks

Regards
