Dear community,
First, thank you all for this wonderful community, it helped me a lot in the past answering my questions by browsing the forums!
I got the following problem. I want to convert a physical linux machine using the Converter Standalone 5.1.
Therefore I am trying to set up a static IP address for my helper VM machine but because I am within a enterprise network (which does not allow DHCP) I have the following problem.
In our company IP addresses are bound to MAC addresses, I already registered a new IP address with a VMWAre friendly (00:50:56:xx) Mac address in our IT department.
But when I use this IP address in the static helper VM setting in the Converter Standalone I am missing the information to enter a Mac address.
It seems to me that the Converter is trying to create this helper VM with a random Mac address but and I don't have control over that so that the logfile says "connect failed to <IP address>".
I am pretty sure that if I could assign this mac address to the helper vm the converter could access this machine in our network.
Is there a hidden option or some trick to define a mac address for the helper VM?
Thanks in advance for your help
