Bridged networking does not work on VMWare Player 15.5 - networking

If I use NAT I get connectivity between my guest OS and all other hosts on my network. If I use Bridged networking I cannot connect from the host to guest os and my guest os cannot connect to any other host on my network.
My host is Windows 10 running on Dell XPS15-9560 laptop. My guest os is ubuntu 19.10.
Does anyone know if this has been fixed in VMWare workstation pro? I can upgrade if the pro version of VMWare will work.

I was able to reproduce this: Installing kubernetes breaks network connectivity. I doubt this is due to VMWare Player.
It also doesn't seem to cause a problem on Ubuntu 18.04, so maybe a problem with 16.04 and 19.10 releases, or maybe just need different installation procedures with different Ubuntu versions.

Running Cloudera Quickstart CDH VM on Hyper-V

The Cloudera quickstart CDH VM can be downloaded as a Virtual Box, KVM, VMWare or Docker Image but I only have Hyper-V available. Is it possible to run this under Hyper-V?
The solution is to download the "Microsoft Virtual Machine Converter 3.0" from Microsoft and convert the vmware image into Hyper-V. Works fine.

Can Windows 2016 Standard support Rancher?

With the release of Rancher upon 1.3.0 version, Windows 2016 Datacenter with Container can provide the experimental support of Rancher. May I know whether there is any way that we can work with Rancher on Windows 2016 Standard version?
Docker for Windows and Docker for Windows Server are very different things with similar names.
Docker for Windows creates a Linux Hyper-V VM on your PC and runs normal Docker and Docker containers. https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/
Docker for Windows Server runs Windows containers on a port of the Docker engine to Windows. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/quick-start/quick-start-windows-server
The Rancher support is for Windows containers on Docker for Windows Server. Also I believe even Docker for Windows requires Windows 10 Pro or similar, not Standard.

Shrew wont connect after windows 8.1 upgrade

I am using Shrew for my VPN connection on Windows 8.0 successfully but it stopped working properly after I upgraded to Windows 8.1. It connects to VPN ok but I cannot access anything on the network. After several attempts it disconnects. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no affect.
Any help wild be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
What version are you using?
When 8.1 was pushed to me here, my copy of Shrew 2.2.2 Professional stopped connecting entirely, with a "tunnel disabled" message (there were 3 messages, that's the only one I can remember). It also hosed my Virtual Machine networking.
To fix, I uninstalled my VMs (VirtualBox, etc.), rebooted, re-installed Shrew, rebooted, and then reintalled VMs. Now everything is working correctly.
HTH!
I saw the same behaviour of Shrew on my machine; uninstalling, re-installing, manually deleting drivers and settings etc. didn't help.
As described here, I use TheGreenBow VPN Client now as an alternative, which works fine under Win 8.1.

How to test Windows application that communicates with a Unix machine

I wrote a windows desktop tool that is supposed to read / write files to a unix machine. The problem is that I don't have a unix machine to test it on.
Is there something I can install on my windows machine that will mimic a remote unix machine and let me test my application?
Installed VMWare player. In VMWare player installed Lubunto. Works perfectly.
