I'm trying to do some testing of Ubuntu 10.04 Beta 2 Server in a VMWare environment. The host is XP, and the VM software is VMPlayer.

Problem is, I want to be able to see the VM from the network, not just from the host. I can SSH into the VM from the host, but from any other machine on the network I can't even get the VM to respond to a ping.

Going the other way (from the VM out) isn't a problem at all.

The VM software did an 'easy installer' so I'm not really sure what was going on with the networking.

Suggestions?

You have to switch guest OS's network to Bridged mode
