In fact, since both are on local only it seems like there is no need
for a firewall at all, there is no outside connection to worry about.
So you can disable the firewall altogether on the XP machine.

Message: That sounds like a firewall problem. If you can ping one way, your
network setup is correct. The ping request can travel from one machine to
the other and the pin reply can travel from the target machine back to the
original requesting machine.

Can you tell how to connect two instances of virtual pcs running in one machine, in effect creating a LAN in one machine ?
thanks.

Same way as you would with two physical machines - there is no difference...

I am assuming that both virtual machines are Windows XP:
1. Set both virtual machines to use "Local only" as their network type
in the Settings in the VPC2007 console.
2. Start up each virtual machine and go to the network interface
connection (your LAN card) properties.
3. Select the item "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" in the list and click
properties button
4. Select "Use the following IP address" radiobutton and then enter an
IP address, preferably a private address like 192.168.11.1
Make sure that both virtual machines have the same first 3 numbers the
same but the last different (1 and 2 for example).
5. Since you have no DNS server accessibility in this case you don't
have to bother with the DNS settings.
6. OK all the way out.
Now the two virtual machines are on the same network and can "see"
each other in the ways allowed by the firewalls on each. Note that if
the guests are XP SP2 or higher you need to open the firewall in order
to make even ping to come through.
Butr since you are on a completely isolated network with these two
machines you may as well disable Windows Firewall altogether. It
serves no purpose in such a configuration.
