Error with WInSCP

[lazyjae]

i fixed the problems with my database restoring then i installed centos with the guide of fix and
i used chumpyserver pack like in the tutorial of fix.
after that he makes some settings with his LAN or whatever which i don't get because it goes so fast.
then he uses winSCP to make a connection from the root to his ip or centos ip which i don't get because i get the error:

You must be registered to see links

then i press login and i get this:

You must be registered to see links

if someone could help me with this i would be really happy!

Is the vmware centos machine running? Are you connecting to the right IP?

 

[lazyjae]

so i have to start my vmware centos virtual machine, i do that but i don't know to which ip i have to connect with the winSCP
the whole time i press login the white screen freezes and then after that says: Network error:Connection timed out

 

[chumpywumpy]

You have to connect to the IP address you gave centos. You can check using the "ifconfig" command in centos.

i can't connect to it when i put in winSCP 192.168.2.2 which is the ip i configured in centos and i press login the white screen just freezes and give a network error! and i dunno why it freezes, its really anoying =(

Is your windows LAN ip 192.168.2.x or something else?

 

[lazyjae]

Its default by DHCP, 192.168.1.9 subnetmask 255.255.255.0 and Standard-gateway is 192.168.1.1 but if i change it to 192.168.2.1 it doesn't work either or if i change it to 192.168.2.2

 

[chumpywumpy]

That is why. Centos must be on the same subnet as windows. Make centos 192.168.1.20 with a gateway of 192.168.1.1. 2 different subnets (192.168.2.x is different) cannot talk to each other without specific routes being added manually and the gateway is the nearest router the connections can use for routing so that should be the same was windows (the router ip).

so i put in centos:
IP: 192.168.1.20
subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1

and in my lan connection:
IP: 192.168.1.1
subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway:192.168.1.1

Or something?

and what do i type in winscp then?

ip: 192.168.1.2
login:root
pw: the pw i use for centos
and then scp as protocol?

Correct.

ip: 192.168.1.20
login:root

You are connecting to the centos IP remember?

 

[lazyjae]

Ok, ill try

Start a new topic with your own details as having two similar problems on the same topic gets confusing. See what is posted above for an example of what i need to see.
