i have server 2003 as dc installed with vmware 6.0. I am using vmware for the first time. I installed the virtual os and selected bridged network during vmware installation. But i dont know how to connect the host and guest. I checked the vmware n/w adapters but they r confusing dont know which one is it.

Any help will be "greatly" appreciated!!!

if you use "bridged networking" the guest operating system use the same network subnet that you use for the real machine. If you have a dhcp server on your lan the virtual network card of the guest os take the address from that on boot (so you have the real and virtual network card with 2 different addresses on the same subnet).
