Hi,
I can access the Internet through my host but not through
the Guest (VM PC).

My host is an XP Pro with it's NIC being: 3Com 3C920
Integrated.

I have created a virtual machine (VM). Following are the
Networking option in the VM:
-Not Connected
-Lcoal Only
-3Com 3C920 Integrated
-Shared Networking (NAT)

I chose the 3 Com and NAT options, but non of them helped.

I have only 1 NIC in the host and I want that NIC to be
used amoung the Guests and Host.

I appreciate your help...

What's the Guest OS?

If you use NAT, the Guest needs to use DHCP to get access
to the internet. If you connect to the Host NIC directly,
you'll need to configure the Host to get an address the
same way that the host does (static, DHCP, etc.)

Scott,
By Guest, I meant Virtual Machines (VM). Not necessarily
I wanted to use the NAT. I just used the NAT and 3Com
options to see if I can get the networking work properly.

Once again, what I need to do is:
Share the single NIC between the Host and VMs. What do I
need to do on the Host and the VMs?

Thanks...

Set the Guest to connect to the Host NIC in the VM's
settings. Then you need to take care of the Guest as I
mentioned in my original reply.

Also, you should read the VPC Help as it describes the
options available.
