VMWARE on ubuntu 6.06 LTS Network subnet

If you loose connection with vmware server (1,05 and 1,06 tested) and you're subnetting (like 255.255.255.192 and so forth in the mask), you will have to define NETWORK, and Broadcast. Example below:

auto eth2
iface eth2 inet static
address         200.200.200.73
network         200.200.200.64
netmask         255.255.255.192
broadcast       200.200.200.127
gateway         200.200.200.65

Its a good idea always to use these no matter what.
