Mar 01, 2010VMWare Player tip
Hi,
I ran into some issues with running on VMWare Player. It turned out that in my (default) config there is no second host-only interface.
My player had the following default config:
VMnet0 --> bridged
VMnet1 --> host-only
VMnet8 --> NAT
There used to be the Virtual Network Editor (vmnetcfg.exe) but it is not installed anymore with version 3. You can install it manually by extracting it from the install file.
VMware-player-3.0.1-227600.exe /e .\vmwareextract
Open network.cab and copy vmnetcfg.exe to the root of your player install. You now have a nice graphical editor for your virtual network.
Cheers,
Richard

Nice Tip! That will be very useful for the player users out there that would rather not edit configuration files. - pmcgleenon_7274

I have it in C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Player (running on Vista) after default install, so I did not need to put it there manually.
