virtual machine to another computer?

Question

I am using windows xp as a virtual machine installed on windows 7. My laptop(computer A) is connected to another computer(B) through a LAN cable. What configuration should I make (what settings should I put on VMware, default gateway...) in order to successfully ping from machine B to the XP virtual machine on laptop A.

In other words I want to connect my virtual machine to another computer.

Simply configure the network adapter on VMWare to bind on your physical network adapter.

Yup, I'm not sure about VMWare, but in Virtual Box this is called "Bridge Mode" – Earlz Feb 28 '10 at 17:16
