Hello, I recently installed VMWare and everything went well except when I try to connect the operating system to the internet i get this error.
“'Could not connect ‘Ethernet0’ to virtual network ‘/dev/vmnet8’. More information can be found in the vmware.log file.
Failed to connect virtual device ‘Ethernet0’.”
I wont find anywhere on the internet the file vmnet8 to manually install it. The VMWare network is on NAT.
You have to start (or start and enable) the vmware-networks service. Use the command
sudo systemctl enable --now vmware-networks
to enable and start the service. Enabled services will run on every system start, so you don’t need to do this again.
