Zimbra appliance configuration

[yogsodoth]

Is it posible to alter the configuration of the Zimbra FC4 appliance?

I'm looking for a way to run this freestanding in bridged mode instead of NATed. Should I be able to do this or is the limitation part of the appliance's configuration? Just trying to pin down whther my VMWare installation or the Zimbra FC4 config is the culprit.

Weell you should be able to simply uninstall ZCS from the appliance and fix your network config, and re-install it...hopefully.

I'm 99% sure that you can just open the .vmx file in a text editor and find the line that is

network=NAT (or something along those lines)

and change to network=bridged

I've done that on another VM in the past.

If you have VMware workstation, even a trial of it, you can use the GUI to change it.
