Note that in the vmware guest configuration, you do NOT want to select bridging. You must use "host only" mode. Don't worry, it will be bridged. So long as your Ethernet card supports promiscuous transmission and reception, you should end up with your guest seeing the exact same network as your host, so you can ifconfig it just as if it really were plugged into the same network.

I have the networking working, but I'm strill not sure why . . . I made a new virtual disk, booted into linux and mounted it with vmware-mount, copied the debian base files into it, rebooted into freebsd & vmware, finished installation, and wall is well. *sigh* hawk -- Prof. Richard E.
