There is a netmask mismatch between the host and the guest for the network 172.168.1.x

Hi jlliagre,

Thanks for your message. how would i change the netmask of guest and host? please suggest

Why do you want to change it on both sides ?

Assuming its a local only virtual network, you can use:

Code:
ifconfig aggr1 netmask 255.255.255.0

You do not tell what IP you are trying to ping though.

Hello jlliagre,

There are 2 VM machines I have and my host machine is windows 7.
One VM is solaris 10 and acting as DNS. name - vmutil
another vm is solaris 10 acting as oracle cluster node RAC. name - vmsol
now I want to ping vmutil and vmsol from my host windows 7 machine without intrupting oracle cluster.
vmsol & Windows host machine IPs are listed above.
Code:
VMUTIL IP:
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
	inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 
e1000g0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
	inet 192.168.1.96 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
	ether 0:c:29:1b:c2:c9

I hope, I could write my problem in detail here.

What have you got the network set to on your two VMs? Private, NAT, or what?
