You could try using Bridged instead of NAT. Bridged would let you set up the NIC on the VM to the same IP address range as the host using the same NIC as the host. If your host IP is 192.168.1.10 on eth0 You could set Bridged > eth0 on the VM settings panel and then set your net config inside the VMs OS to 192.168.1.X on eth0 -- If we can but prevent the government from wasting the labours of the people, under the pretence of taking care of them, they must become happy. - Thomas Jefferson
