This can simply be fixed by changing the MAC address. Open the Virtual Machine Properties and write down the MAC Address:
open the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 in your favorite editor and change the HWADDR to the new MAC address and save the file.
The final step is to restart networking via /etc/init.d/network restart.
