Locked myself out, any way to reconnect?
-
Hello!
Today I was busy trying to fix an internet problem, so I accidentally locked myself out of my server by trying to bridge a WAN and a LAN gateway.
I can no longer ping the ip address of any of the virtual machines on the same server, so does anyone have any suggestions how I might be able to get back into the GUI? Maybe by connecting by cable?Any suggestion is appreciated!

Go to the console and restore previous config.

How can I still go to the console?
I have to access it through vmware, but don't know how to reach it now. -
So host console has no provision for presenting VM consoles? Even Oracle VirtualBox does that. No network required.

Managed to get at the console, finally.
Spurred on by your thoughts, I decided to go all out, so I got my server off the wall (to make room for the vga cable), got a spare monitor and stuff. Managed to revert to a previous configuration.thanks!
