Hi, I am running VMWorkstation 4 on my Dell Latitude C610 laptop. The host OS is Windows 2000. I have installed Red Hat Linux 8.0 as guest OS on the virtual machine. When I see in the C:\Programs\VMware\Manage Vitual Networks, in the tab - Host Virtual Network Mapping, I see that VMnet0(Bridged) is set to "Bridged to an automatically chosen adapter". My NIC is 3COM sC920 Integrated Fast Ethernet Controller. When I power on my virtual machine, it boots the RedHat Linux 8.0 and after logging in, I found that network is not setup. When I run the network configuration tool, I see that the device eth0 is pointed to the hardware device 'AMD PCnet32'. Why the virtual machine is not setup for networking? I would like to setup in such a way that the physical network sees the virtual machine as a separate machine. Virtual machine should have separate IP address . Any other machine on the physical network should be able to communicate with the virtual machine, for example ftp to virtual machine from any other host. How can I do this? Someone please help me in configuring to achieve this? Any good sources on this VMware Networking? Any sort of help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...
