Hi,
I have installed VMware Server 2.0.2 for the gazillionth time on my Suse11 server, in an effort to resolve the million problems VMware has with SLES. After all other issues being resolved, I cannot get the internet to work on my VMs and I cannot access the VMs over HTTP. My Server ifconfig is as follows:

Since I do not know much about networks, I cannot figure out whats going wrong here. However, I do know that in the first instance, after the install, I could ping external IPs but not after I restarted the VMware Server.
Please help!
Kind Regards,
Umair
