problems moving VM's from workstation to esxi

With CentOS 6 everthing is handled by udev now.

Go into /etc/udev/rules.d and delete the 70-persistent-net.rules

Now you need to edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and manually strip the file of anything that could break it - dont delete this file though.  Just keep the eth0, IP address

restarting the network service does nothing, it seems that udev needs to restart , so restart the machine
Is there another to restart udev ?

NMAP

It's been about 15 years since I used NMAP, I forgot how useful the tool is. To find out what services are running on an IP address simply use something like nmap -n -v -p1-10000 x.x.x.x -n tells nmap not to do name resolution (saves about 13 seconds if the IP you're scanning isn't in DNS_ -v verbose -p1-10000 says scan ports 1 to 10,000 (otherwise nmap will only scan the first 1000 ports)
