Sorry for not getting this, but I have attempted to use those options like the following:
Get-vm -Name rickpo-test | Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface | Set-VMGuestNetworkInterface -GuestUser Administrator -GuestPassword Passw0rd -IPPolicy Static 10.10.10.10 -Netmask 255.255.255.0 -Gateway 10.10.10.1
and received the following error.
Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface : 8/6/2013 1:03:52 PM Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface Failed to authenticate with the guest operating system using the supplied cr
edentials.
At line:1 char:55
+ Get-vm -Name rickpo-test | Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface <<<< | Set-VMGuestNetworkInterface -GuestUser Administrator -GuestPassword Passw0rd -IPPolicy Static

+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface], InvalidGuestLogin
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : Client20_VmGuestServiceImpl_GetGuestAuthentication_ViError,VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Cmdlets.Commands.GetVmGuestNetworkInterface
If I connect to this VM via console, I can login and receive my desktop using this credentials. What am I missing?
Does it matter that I am doing this in Window PowerShell ISE?
let me know. I am almost there.
Thank you
Rick
