Working configuration for 5.1 and VMware 3 or 2?

[Neil Long]

Hello

is there something wrong with the mail archive search scripts? I always
seem to get 'list unavailable' :-(

Anyway - 5_1 on Dell Latitude C640. the vmware3 port installs but the
paths are a little odd - isoimages, licences are looked for in 
/usr/lib/vmware rather than /usr/local/lib....

I installed (w2k) a guest and it is fine but I cannot get networking
host-only or bridge modes as the vmnet1 interface IP isn't found
which indicates it hasn't found the config file in 
/usr/local/ - I tried sym-linking it to /etc/vmware/config but still 
no good.

Anyone got it working? I suspect vmware2 might work - next plan....

Tantalisingly close to working...

but of course after going in circles for a couple of hours I may have
missed something obvious.

thanks
Neil
