I have XP Home host, and trying to have bridge connection with Ubuntu 7.10 as guest.
I am getting the
vmnet0 problem.

The network bridge on device VMnet0 is not running.... Virtual device Ethernet0 will start disconnected.

I have tried to install other operating systems in VMware - both Linux and Windows - and still getting the VMnet0 error. I have used an
XP Pro host, that is on my wireless network, and it installs VMware with bridged fine.
Another thing I've noticed [and not sure if it matters]: on the "Automatic Bridging" tab in VMware Workstation, underneath "
Automatic Bridging", where the check box to select it to automatically choose a network adapter.. is
blanked out.
(This may be true, I'm not sure, but I've read somewhere via a Google search that you can't do this as XP Home host, you must use XP Pro(?))
Thanks
