Firstly this:

(Server only).
Gateway ip - 192.168.0.1

I think it should be the ip of your home modem, which looks to be 192.168.25.254..

Try that as a starter.
Also look at what ip you are giving the server, in the same range 192.168.25.* would be better.

Hi Guys

Hi, welcome here

first of all, please don't multipost.. you've already posted the same "problem" here: http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,48494.msg240866.html#msg240866

I have a school project called SME Server Lunix.

LInux, not Lunix

I searched alot in google for right material but i find it but not very clearly.

almost everything you need to know about SME is here and in the wiki and in the documentation

I use VMware version 7.

I don't know/use vmware but what you are saying is not enough:
- what version of vmware are you using? server, workstation, player?
- what version of SME are you using?

ok..

use, at the moment, only one network card
configure it in bridged mode
configure server in server only mode: use, for example, 192.168.25.200 for ip, 255.255.255.0 for netmask, 192.168.25.254 for gateway

test your internet connection from SME's console, it should work now

to access your server-manager web page, you can't use the hostname (es. server1) because it's obviously unknown in your lan.. use, instead, its ip address

https://192.168.25.200/server-manager

it should work.. if not, try to ping your server (its ip address) from your client command line..

Send me any information if you would like to share with me my email (asahafie@ictmbo.nl)

nobody will/should write to you via email: forum are aimed to share knowledge and experiences.. if I answer you in mail, nobody else will know and learn..
