    Hello,

    I have successfully installed VMWare server on Ubuntu 10.04. There are 3 network interfaces on my machine but I can only use one in VMWare. No more vmnet2 or vmnet3 even tough they were correctly configurated during VMW install !

    I don't remember how I did it but this machine have been running fine using all 3 networks untill I had to reinstall.

    I'm trying to solve this for 3 days now.I've been installing and reinstalling VMW lots of times following different tutos and even went back to Ubuntu 9.04 without success tonight !! I'll really appreciate your help :)
    Great thanks in advance

    Greetings to all.

    If I remember correctly, I've never had vmnet2 and vmnet3 interfaces in any VMware Server installation - only vmnet1 and vmnet8, so I don't think there's anything wrong with your installation.
