I have no internet in Linux due to my only way to get internet is through my blackberry curve phone sharing ( I think some call this tethering) internet to the pc. It works fine in winblows of course with the provided winblows software, so I booted over to Linux, fired up VMware workstation 6.5, set up the internet in it, and I have internet in my guest os in vmware which is 32 bit xp media center. I right clicked the connection from "network connections" and went to share this connection. Now I'd like to share it to my host os, 64-bit Ubuntu 8.10 in Raid 0. Do I need to be using NAT or Bridged. Please be specific and give detailed instructions. Thank you. I've set up internet sharing before but not virtually.

you can install a proxy on the guest os, you can use this proxy on the host.

thnx

I'm unable to ping the ip that I get internet with from the guest.

pls check the network type that you are doing, i think that you are using NAT type network or firewall is working.

thnx
