PING: Transmit failed. General Failure.

 

如果在VMware中遇到这种情况，直接把已有的网卡删除，重新添加一个新的网卡即可

For those visiting, looking for an answer, I had the same issue in a VMware machine which i was moving from one domain to another. The fix was to remove the existing VM NIC then install a new NIC. Interestingly Windows 7 told me that the IP I assigned to the new NIC was already assigned to the old NIC, eventhough the old NIC was no longer available and that I may have issues when the old NIC was made available (which it would not as I had deleted it from the VMware config for that server).

Once I entered the same IP information against the new NIC it worked like a charm!
