P.S.
I was using VMWare Virtual Machine with the Bridged Networking enabled and
was able to discover my local subnet.

Hello List,
We are planning on porting over our NV 7.1.4 server from Windows to Linux,
but before hand I want to make some tests and we don't have any extra
servers to test on.
I am not sure if this is supported, but here goes. I am running Red Hat 7.2
running on a virtual machine with Netview 7.1.4. I set up discovery on local
subnet only. However upon starting Netview, there is nothing discovered. I
am not an expert with Linux but I did configure the SNMP agent to match the
community name of NV. I also ran " /sbin/service iptables stop" in case I
had any kind of Linux Firewall rules. I am able to ping a server on the same
subnet, I am also able to snmpwalk the same server. The only weird thing I
noticed is under Test... IP/TCP/SNMP connectivity... I get an error "could
not connect to port 5888: connection refused" but thats only for TCP test,
ICMP and SNMP are ok. From that server I am trying to monitor, I am able to
ping, telnet, and telnet to port 162 to the virtual PC, I added it to the
seedfile include, and added to the host file and tried to run loadhosts
making sure in the options that I manage nodes added by loadhosts. Yet I
still do not have anything discovered?
Can anyone shoot out any ideas out or can I assume it just won't work
running on a virtual PC?
Thanks
Carlos
