An error of FreeBSD on VMware Fusion "lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer" was sometimes annoying me.

When bunch of this error stacks, virtual machine stacks too.After upgrading Fusion 3, it seems to run more stable, but this error still occurs.

I had been looking for solution to resolve this problem for several months and I found two solutions. The one is installing VMware tools and using vmxnet for Network interface, and another is editing .vmx file and add alternate NIC statement (e1000) in it.

VMware tools for fusion supports ony FreeBSD 6.3 and 7.0. Unfortunatelly I am using 6.2, so my environment was rejected by its installer.

I decieded to change NIC to e1000, and as a result it runs without problems.

# How to change NIC of Virtual Machine of VMware Fusion.

Shutdown your VM and edit "YOURVM.vmx" file, then add this line. (you can see .vmx file in your VM file by Terminal.app)

ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000"

Change NIC name to em0 in your rc.conf.

ifconfig_em0 "inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0"

Do not forget backup .vmx file before you edit.


I don't know why but named gave connection error "named : creating IPv4 interface failed".

listen-on option gets rid of the message.
Add this in option directive of named.conf.

listen-on { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.100.0/24; };
