Network Issues about packer-win2019 HOT 2 OPEN

Thanks eaksel.
I think my problem resides in the fact that i should install vmware tools during the unattended otherwise my vm doesn't have the drivers to bring up the nic vmxnet3.
I'm mounting the iso for vmware tools in a cd sata. crated a cmd script that runs setup during autounattend.
I'll let you know if it works. mabye someone is gonna need to understand this.

Hi @Emanuele94,

You shouldn't have to edit that file for networking.

I haven't used the vsphere-iso builder previously so I can't tell for sure, but it should work as for the other builders:

• The VM is created
• It gets an IP address from your DHCP server
• Packer retrieves the IP address from the hypervisor

I hope that makes it clearer for you.
