If I'm running freebsd, and running window s > in vmware, will the windows apps have access to the network? Well, the "contained" environment only has direct access to the host.. However, the host can route or bridge or nat via other methods... If you give the vmnet interface a valid routable address you can set your freebsd host to do ipforwarding and set up your routes and it'll work as though it was a small ethernet with a real box on the other end instead of an emulated system. > Doug > -- > "So, the cows were part of a dream that dreamed itself into > existence?
