Hello,

After running cvsup to obtain latest stable of freebsd 4.4. My vmware2 under
linux emulation no longer work.

vmnet1 interface is up and running and I can ping it:
vmnet1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.254.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.254.255
        ether 00:bd:eb:08:00:01 

Each time I startup vmware from command line, after a series of windows, I get
the error:

Could not get address for /dev/vmnet1: Invalid argument.
Failed to configure ethernet0.

I noticed that the cvsup of the latest stable checked out some linux source
files. I don't know where the linux emulation breaks so any help or pointers
are greatly appreciated.
