Use Bonjour print services to allow OS X Mac to see Windows 7 VM IIS


I've been following this blog post, which claims to work to allow OS X to see IIS on my Windows VM (I'm using VMware Fusion):

http://blog.prabir.me/post/Expose-IISExpress-to-Mac-from-a-Windows-Virtual-Machine.aspx

I followed the blog points to the letter and can see IIS inside the VM in the browser fine, but not on OS X

Anyone got any idea what I might be missing config wise?

Thanks.


Solution

  • For anyone interested, the issue I was having was that my network adapter in VMware fusion was set to NAT.

    It should be set to Bridged, so that the VM appears as a separate address to the mac. Then the tutorial mentioned in the question works perfectly.

    Hope this helps someone!
