MAC/Licensing Issue

[skifreak107]

We have our Proxmox on a VM running on ESX. Here are the mac address settings and the issue we're having:

ESX Host: 00:14:22:b3:6b:--
Proxmox VM NIC: 00:50:56:8d:6e:--

The license file has the 00:50:56:8d:6e:-- address in it. When I look at the Proxmox page, it says Invalid Mac Address, and says that the host mac address is 00:0C:29:84:01:--. I don't know what this address is or where it came from, but how do I solve this issue?

the mac of a vmware guest is specified in the vmware configuration files. so the question is what part do you changed?

Hi Tom,

The mac of the VM guest is 00:50:56:8d:6e:--, which is what is set in the license file. When I pull up proxmox, though, it reads 00:0C:29:84:01:-- in the "Host Mac Address" field and says my license is invalid. I don't have that address anywhere on my network, my esx hosts, my guests, or my firewall. Where does proxmox pull that "Host Mac Address" from?

What is the output of:

# ifconfig

(login via ssh and run above command).
