I found bridged wouldn't wo= rk > over wireless, so I use NAT on my laptop. I don't know if this is relevant, but two things: 1. The VMware devices that are used are VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet=20 Adapter #5 (for NAT on vmnet8) and VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet=20 Adapter #4 (for eth0 on vmnet0). I wonder why they aren't assigned to=20 adapters in the range 0-3? I never see adapter #0 or #1, even when I=20 use WinXP's Device Manager (with hidden devices visible). 2. There is a Gentoo directory called /etc/vmware/vmnet8, but no=20 directory /etc/vmware0. Yes, the eth0 bridge is up: $ ps -efww | fgrep bridge =3D=3D> root 30055 1 0 09:32 ? 00:00:00 \=20 /opt/vmware/workstation/bin/vmnet-bridge -d \=20 /var/run/vmnet-bridge-0.pid /dev/vmnet0 eth0 /dev/vmnet0 exists and has the same owner and permissions as /dev/vmnet8.= --- Vladimir --=20 Vladimir G.
