Dear Scott, Thanks so much for your help. In fact, I missed this command which is important for Linux Guest : chmod a+rw /dev/vmnet0 It was pointed in this link <http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=287> at the end of this one <https://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8970>. Hope it helps somebody else ...
