Alright, I'm exhausted with this. First, let me explain my system:
I have 2.0 GHz system running Debian sarge. I have a WinXP VM set up. I have two eth interfaces: eth0 is a wired NIC, and eth1 is a wireless NIC. I tried putting them both in bridge mode with and without NAT.
Now, after I run vmware-config.pl, it seems that everything is set up fine, and then for some reason, everything stops responding when I probe my eth interfaces. For instance, I rebooted the machine, and when it came back up, I pumped for an IP address on eth1, and it just stopped responding. No output, nothing, just had to hard boot, which is a big reason why I got away from Windows. This is the only thing I've ever seen in Linux that causes a hard lock, and I've done some crazy crap. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone has any input on this. Right now, VMWare is no use to me. I posted once on here and someone linked a HOWTO, which I had already seen, but went through again. It doesn't help. I need someone to maybe point me in th right direction.
Thanks, Paul
