VMWorkstation 6.2 -- FreeBSD 7.1 and Bridged networking

Hello everyone.

Running VMW 6.2 on XP SP3 host.

Setup a FreeBSD 7.1 VM that works fine with NAT.

now, i am trying to get bridged networking working and having a bugger of a time doing so.

I have installed vmware tools.

AFter installing the tools, I did put in ifconfig_vxn0="dhcp"

But no luck.

I am doing this because I want to do some network testing and would like the VM to be on the same network as the host. Therefore, when I plug the host into my home network, fire up the VM, I will have a bunch of machines on my network to play with.

Anysuggestins?

Thanks.
