Hmmm.  I have windows 8.1, linux mint vm's on my centos 6.5 box and they all work with networking, but centos 7 vm doesn't have any networking.  Do I need to install the VM tools for the network to work.  I don't remember having to do that.  In cents 7 vm's, I don't get the nat'd IP address that is usually there :(

Thanks,
