I've had trouble configuring bridged networking

set it up using dynamic IP supplied by DHCP.

I came close to getting this to work, but it
seems that when I got the guest OS to connect
to the network, the host was no longer able to connect.

Any suggestions?

(What I really want is the no-problem configuration
that VMWare has -- just click "Bridged Network," assign
a static IP address in the guest OS, and it simply works.)

The key is creating a bridge and placing your eth0 connection in promiscuous mode. Then reassign the IP.
