VMWare and Bridged networking failure
I was using VMWare Workstation 6 for Linux and figured a weird thing that with Wireless connection on the host machine, the guest could not obtain an IP address in bridged mode. The Windows guest would throw an error “An error occurred while renewing interface Local Area Connection : unable to contact your DHCP server. Request has timed out.” This is a weird phenomena. I’m not quite sure what the reason is for this failure, but it does work if the host has a wired connection. May be VMWare Workstation would get better with these things in future. Do we see any patches coming soon? Or may be it is a “limited feature” software and a marketing gimmick to sell other (more expensive versions such as GSX server).
