Dualboxing Issue's With Windows 8.x Or Windows 10 And Vmware Installed Solved


Recommended Posts

For those that run Windows 8.x or Windows 10 AND have VMware Player or Workstation installed.

 

First make sure you can run E&B.

Use the guide for Win 8 (https://forum.enb-emulator.com/index.php?/topic/8167-windows-8/).

Use the guide for Win 10 (https://forum.enb-emulator.com/index.php?/topic/11418-windows-10-the-install/).

 

Navigate to your Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center

Open Change adaptor settings

Disable VMware Network Adapaters VMnet1 and VMnet8

 

Start Net7 as usual.

why do you need to remove vmware net adapters? what error message you get?

I wrote "disabled" not remove :huh:

 

As to your question: you get no error what so ever. A second session is just not set up.

Yes, you see 2 Net7-icons in the taskbar but only 1 netproxy seems to load and stay active.

 

Because of this any additional login of other accounts make use of that single netproxy resulting in the last account being logged on being active.

Previous logged in account get dropped.

 

The workaround I wrote was in response of this thread: https://forum.enb-emulator.com/index.php?/topic/11401-dualboxing-not-working-on-win-81/.

 

The added images show what I mean:

  1. Capture001 is of all network cards available in my computer.
  2. Capture002a and Capture003 show the NIC that I disabled.
  3. Capture004 shows which local ip-address are found by Net7 when the normal NIC and both the VMnet1 en VMnet8 are active.
  4. Capture005 illustrated the Virtual Network Editor with their respective configured DHCP scopes.

Can you revert your changes to vmware net interface so that multi-client breaks and try this version to see if it works? http://enb.bmsite.net/files/net7proxy.zip

 

This version will bind to random port by OS choosing instead of pre-chosen ports.

 

You can check which port proxy is listening under task manager / resource monitor

Used the Net7proxy.zip. It works now with both the VMnet1 and 8 enabled.

Apart from the Windows 10 smartscreen pop-up "no worries".

 

Was able to group just fine.

 

Ports used by first client when I check were:

the local ip-address (private range) at 53591

unspecified:  50223, 51536 and 51537.

 

I started second client and this one went for:

the local ip-address (private range) at 57947

unspecified:  52815, 52816 and 56741

 

DId some extra test like gating..  Again no worries.

Buffing no issue's. No problems seen yet with Wormholes.

Summon worked fine. Getting access to TD via key was without incident.

 

Not sure what else I might need to test...
