I had VMware running great under the 7.2 beta. I have since removed VMware
since upgrading to 7.2 final. BTW I was running Windows 98 on a virtual
disk with IP forwarding and using Samba to have access to my files from
the virtual machine.

The one suggestion that I would make is to not use the built-in VMware
Samba server and properly configure/setup the version of Samba that comes
with Mandrake.

If you need a hand let me know via private email...
