I'm using the fresh port of vmware2. The port asks for a network address, and this is connected to the vmnet1 interface, using ifconfig. Shall this be a real IP address on my LAN, or is it an internal network "inside" the host computer? I gather the second, right? Then, I need to enable a gateway on the host and also do NAT, right? I'll do some rtfm on the vmware site, but if someone has a short explanation, I'll be much obliged. Cheers!
