Installing Centos 7

When you install Centos 7 for some reason the network has been disabled. Within VMWare the NAT is working fine but Centos has disabled the connection. To re-enable it do the following

1. In the right of the screen is the power button, select it
2. Notice an option called PCI Ethernet... and the value Off to the right of it
3. Select this item and it will expand, it will show
   
   1. Connect
   2. Wired Settings
4. Select Connect, the Centos VM will now connect to the NAT

After installing Centos you might find that there is network connection but there is no internet connection.

ifconfig may reveal empty values, which might mean the DHCP settings have not been configured.  

Run dhclient -v

This should resolve the problem
