  • ​VMware Communities: virtual network editor disapeared? ...
    • The Virtual Network configuration tool is also missing from VMWare Player 3.1 for Linux. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be included in the installation package; at least I can't find it. Anyway I've found a way to get vmnetcfg for Player on Linux (its not pretty).

• VMware Workstationでは「仮想ネットワークの設定」や「チーム LAN セグメント」によって、ESXiではvSphere Clientから仮想ネットワークをGUIのみを使って簡単に増設・設定できるが、VMware Serverにおいては、web UIからはそもそも設定以前に、ネットワーク構成の詳細を知ることも出来ない。
• Linux ホストOS上でvmware-config.plを用いて増設・設定をする手順を以下にまとめる。

• Ubuntu Lucid上でvmware-config.plが動かない問題については => Server2onLucid?
