VMWare uses a Virtual Network (but still attaches functionality to the real one). So, try to go START –> Connect To –> Show All Network Connections, and make sure that 2 adapters are ENABLED. That should work.

for DVL S+E605 Localhost is a directory of a web server , run on your computer but somehow DVL doesn't start it properly. It is Apache BTW , and you can try command start-apache. Server puts as /localhost/ a directory from apache settings /usr/local/apache/htdocs[or sth]/index.php Finally when you have server started you can access from a browser http://localhost/olate/ or anytime use file manager file:///usr/local/apache/…/olate/

(You are accessing the files there are already on your computer.)

double check that in /etc/hosts there is a line that says:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

Does it use IPv6 primarily? in that case you need ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain.
