On the VMWare Player "Ethernet" menu switch from "Bridged" to "NAT".  Then, on 
the same menu, uncheck the "Connected" status to disconnect VMWare.  Then check 
it again to VMWare will establish a new IP on your local machine.  Then either 
reboot the zenoss VM or at a prompt type:

/etc/init.d/network restart

The machine should be online at that point.

The Zenoss appliance defaults to DHCP "bridged" networking within VMWare Player 
(and server).  This setting means it will try to grab a dynamic IP address from 
the same place your XP machine does.

Whatever network configuration your XP machine is on is connected to allowing 
VMWare to use an IP.

A caveat of this approach is zenoss may or may not be able to "see" machines on 
your network if they are using internal IP addresses.
