Not able to access the internet on CentOS 6.2?

I have installed the VMware Player to use the CentOS 6.2 on my machine having Windows XP operating system. When I am using the CentOS , I am not able to access the internet . But the sites hosted by our organization's intranet are accessible.

Also , I am able to access the internet and intranet when I am accessing it in the XP environment.

I have not created any user for the CentOS and it is avaialbe to me when I am selecting any instance of the CentOS through the VMware Player.

Looking for Help!

I had this problem too, and it seems the solution is to modify

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

So that the line reads ONBOOT=yes instead of the default ONBOOT=no

Then restart your computer, or run ifup eth0 and you should have internet working. Since the default is to have no network, it can be tricky to find the solution if you haven't got another computer to look it up from!
