Hi, I installed VMWare Server 2.0.2 on Ubuntu, and copied an existing RHEL guest. It runs, I can work in the console (weird mouse behaviour, but my goal is to ssh to it), but there's no connectivity with the host. I upgraded the VMWare tools with no luck.
In the console, the "Network Adapter 1" (bridged) is permanently disabled even when I force the "connect" in the web console.
The host:

Any hints? Thanks in advance
