It depends on the congiguration of the networking in VMWare. I think it needs to be 'bridged'. IIRC, I think in that mode VMWare will put the actual (Ubuntu) NIC in promiscuous mode anyway (or it may play with the MAC table). At any rate you should be able to see traffic to the guest.

The NIC is in the promiscuous mode. -- John McDermott, CPLP, CCP Writer, Educator, Consultant jjm at jkintl.com www.jkintl.com V: +1 575/377-6293 Please call for fax access. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
