@Dashrender
I haven't installed a DB as of yet. I thought I could connect to Oracle DB online. Think I may need to d/l Oracle DB?

Dashrender

I'm confused - what exactly are you trying to do? can you provide a screen shot?

For testing purposes, disable the windows Firewall to make sure it's not something like that.

MrWright4hire

I figured it out. I created another NIC, configured it as a NAT and opened up the port that I needed. @Dashrender thank you for coming to my rescue and offering some suggestions. I really do appreciate it.

MrWright4hire

@dafyre that was the first thing I did. However, thank you all the same for your suggestion.

Does

nslookup google.com

return an IP address?

What virtualization software are you using? Might have to switch settings for the virtual machine's network.

MrWright4hire

@travisdh1 I'm using VM station Workstation 10.

@MrWright4hire It's been like 10 years since I used VMware workstation, so I doubt I'll be much help on that end.

Does an nslookup return a valid ip address from within the vm?

MrWright4hire

@travisdh1 I'll check right now.
Indeed it does.

It's most likely a firewall blocking you somewhere then. Seems the server can access the internet.

So your VM now has two NICs? One configured as NAT to what? the VM host?

Any update?
