My main purpose in using VMWare is to just get work done in the guest<br>OS'es I have, rather than focus on how they use or share system<br>resources. Since I'm new to VMware I just follow their published<br>guidelines. Thankfully, VMWare does a huge amount of your thinking for
<br>you and tries to provide all the resources you might want. It provides a<br>great deal of networking support. There is very extensive published<br>documentation on VMWare, and the VMWare forums are extremely active.<br>
Perhaps these resources can offer you more insight?<br><br>Bob<br>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----<br>Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux)<br>Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - <a href="http://enigmail.mozdev.org/" target="_blank">

<div>I suspected from the beginning that I was hunting a white whale. I didn't really want to waste forum resources, but thought maybe someone had a quick answer. I think I'll explore a more automated approach to natively supporting my wireless card, under sepaerate cover. Thanks for your input.
