I'm not using the EFW ISO, but the VMware Image. I opened the
EFW_Community_2.vmx in VMware, then log in.
I highly recommend you use the ISO for installation. The VMWare image is
a little strange, and cut from someone's particular NIC config on their
home machine. The br0 interface will configure on its own if you use the
ISO image.
should I config Vmware to set vmnet0,vmnet1 and vmnet2 all with the
bridged mode?
As far as bridging, on your host machine (under VMWare Host settings)
set VMNet0 to bridge to eth0, VMNet1 to eth1, and so on.
Do you mean that you run you Vmware on Linux host,and then create a new
linux client on Vmware?
I run VMWare on XP right now, but the VM was built on Ubuntu. I was
referring to the type of guest system, when it prompts you for what type
of OS the VM will be.
I hope this helps, if not, let me know, I've considered putting together
a tutorial for EFW VM setup, and this might motivate me :).

firewall. If it works, you're good to go (for ease of use, run the
network config). After that, I power down the VM, and add the next nic
(red), bridged. Start the EFWVM back up. Once it works, web into it
again and run the network config again, this time declaring the
new nic
as your red zone. Test to make sure you can talk to the outside world
through the red zone. If you can, good to go. Power down the VM again,
install the blue zone as a bridged nic, fire it up again, run through
the network config, declare the nw nic as a blue zone (if ya need it),
and you're cooking with gas. From there, you should have a fully
functional VM EFW. I scaled back the ram on mine, but 512 makes the
install go nice and quick.
