VMWare Setup
Hi,
Well, it had to happend. After carefully trying to make win98 crash - it
collapsed to me yesterday after installing Cute FTP 2.8 with their MFC. Now I
cannot access my win98 at all (gives me the GPF in the explorer.exe), which
means to me - new install... - but thats not the problem I'm asking here...
I decided to install new Win 95 install on the vmware (yes, I know about the
vmware doesn't handle hebrew fonts with their svga driver and they know about
it), and I would like to ask this:
Since this machine I'm writing this email doesn't have any Network cards in -
what do I need to setup that I can just dial through Linux and use it with the
vmware machine also?
Their web page is not clear enough about it so much, so any help (and long help
messages with explanation) will be welcome.
Here are the questions:
1. Which ethernet setup do I need to setup in the vmware? host only or bridged?
2. The vmware says it's running modified DHCP. Thats nice - does it means I need
to setup inside the win95 (inside vmware) to use DHCP?
3. I've got the IP Masquarade howto here and it talks about eth devices - does
it need to be changed since I don't have any network card here?
As I said - any help will be most welcome.
Hetz
