Recently, I upgraded vmware from vmware2-2.0.3.799_1 to
vmware2-2.0.4.1142. The upgrading procedure was as follows.
First, I uninstalled the old port, and then installed the
new port. The procedure went on successfully and I could
start vmware. However, when I click the "power on" button
to start the guest OS (WinNT4.0), I met a problem. Namely,
my vmware complains as follows.
Could not get address for /dev/vmnet1: Invalid argument
Failed to configure ehthernet0.
When I was a user of the old port, I never encounter the
problem. When installing the new port, I followed exactly
the same procedure needed for the old port to work, in which
I enabled netgraph bridging. I do not change any items in
"configuration editor."
How can I solve the problem? Any hints are welcome.
