I can't seem to connect using any of the networking options -- NAT, bridged or host-only. I try to ping my guest from the host machine or to connect to SQL Server and fail.
I can connect to the internet using either NAT or bridged fine -- though I'd quickly trade that for being able to connect to the guest from the host.
I have an Airport extreme. The host info is:
en1: flags=8863 mtu 1500
The guest (currently, using NAT) is:

I read about changing the nat.conf, but those posts were for beta releases -- I have the 1.0 Fusion release -- the file seems to be substantially different.
This seems like it should be simple, but it's taking my whole day. I'm willing to set the networking mode to anything, don't care if I can't connect to the Internet.
So, what networking setting would make this the simplest?
Do I need to edit the nat config to enable port forwarding?
Thanks!
