Hi, I was trying to find a way to quickly roll out clients and needed to change IPs, here's my solution (for windows), hope you enjoy, now if I can just point you over to my question
http://communities.vmware.com/thread/158139
::
::Change IP
::
::You will need to run this with admin rights, under Vista this means "Run as administrator"
::
::If you need to alter your addresses alter the second and third line to your allocated blocks
::The only "user input" is %variable% in the second line the others are static from the values in here
::If you wish to alter the third value with input simply delete it from in front of %variable% and enter it at the prompt
::Check that the connection that you are trying to change corresponds with the one in quotes
::
::Any trouble just ask
::E-mail removed sorry (company internal)
::
@echo off
SET /P variable=Please enter the IP to change to: 172.0.0.
netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" static 172.0.0.%variable% 255.255.0.0 172.0.0.0 1
netsh interface ip set dns "Local Area Connection" static 172.0.0.0
echo If there are no error messages then your IP has probably been set.

Fantastic. I would post it rather is MS groups.
are you talking about the Microsoft groups or is there a separate section in VMware communities somewhere?
MS as the subdivision of VMware? The other way round is more likely.
