Hmmm... well, I am not running a DHCP server on the FreeBSD host ... but I am running one on my network. I switched winXP to DHCP and attempted to grab an address, but was unsuccessful. Should it be getting an address from the network as a whole, or do I need to run a DHCP server on the host system ? I'm not sure I understand what the network path is between a host-only guest, the vmnet1 interface, and the rest of the network ... I tried getting a DHCP address with and without bridge.ko loaded ... both failed. ____________________________________________________________________________________Get the Yahoo! toolbar and be alerted to new email wherever you're surfing. http://new.toolbar.yahoo.com/toolbar/features/mail/index.php
