PrivateFirewall - allowing vmware bridged VM to pass-thru

Hi!
I have VMWare installed with bridged network.
I'm out of ideas how to say PrivateFirewall to allow it go anywhere the VM wants.
PrivateFirewall keeps blocking it.

How to say it to allow specific IP (say 192.168.1.70) to go anywhere it wants? I've added VM IP to "Trusted IPs" and now it can go anywhere with UDP/ICMP packets (ping/dns from VM works ok). But TCP packets are dropped!
What should I do?

PS My host IP is 192.168.1.5, router is 192.168.1.1

 

In my experience with PF it is better to allow connections one by one than to use the 'allow all' option. While 'allow all' works as expected with the Process Monitor section (HIPS), it gives me problems with the firewall for certain applications. For example, it makes Spotify unuseable for me.

My advice would be to delete the program from the Applications tab to start again allowing every pop up as they appear. Always choosing to remember the rule created, of course.

 

There's no "program" to enable anything to it.

It is just a connection going from system itself (I assume it is a kernel driver of vmware).

Is there any way to setup firewall rule in PrivateFirewall without binding it to some program at all?

 

Have you tried trusting remote from the Firewall Log tab? Just right click on one of the blocked connections.

 

Yes, "remote" there is a remote server that VM is trying to access. Since I want to be able to access many sites, it will require adding many-many sites to "trusting remote" list. Not a viable option.

 

Changed bridge to NAT, now it uses vmnat.exe to access internet. So PrivateFirewall can handle it.

But when "bridged"... no idea if it's possible at all.

 

Try to put 224.0.0.22 in the Trust list and see if that helps.

 

try to do all this but no use
is there any other solution?
please update
