Welcome to openSUSE Forums! I don’t use VMware (using VirtualBox instead), but assuming you’ve set the network up as bridged (on host), then you can configure the openSUSE guest network using YaST > System > Network Settings (as with openSUSE running on a physical machine).
We have a special Virtalization subforum whwre people knnowing about this branch of science are eager to help you. I will move this thread there.
Also, we have to t ell each new member:
Please in the future use CODE tags around copied/pasted computer text in a post. It is the # button in the tool bar of the post editor. When applicable copy/paste complete, that is including the prompt, the command, the output and the next prompt.
Thus refrain from story telling like :the ifconfig commands shows …", because the command is already in the copied/pasted part.
This thread is CLOSED for the moment during the move.
Yes, this thread is now in Virtualization and not anymore in Install/Boot/Login.
What is the problem? You found it and posted in it. Everybody can see it in the Virtalization forum and read it and post in it.
This useless conversation is poluting your thread. I hope people will come and give suggestions on your technical problem soon.
Tidying up this thread,
Appears that the OP first wasn’t connected to a network or wasn’t communicating with a DHCP server so had no network configuration,
Then was connected but assigned a Class B private address which suggests that the machine was not easily routable from another network (but of course can be accessed by another machine on the same private network).
Then, there was a suggestion to re-configure the network adapter to use a bridging network adapter which of course if DHCP is running should enable the machine to be accessible on the physical network.
