Being sort of a VM newbi but an IP vet of many years, it appears that you have 
the Hipersocket LANs network set to 16 bits where it should be 27. I could be 
wrong here but the NETSTAT GATE: results should look something like 

"129.80.45.0    <direct>        US      1500    0.0.0.224 ..."

I do know that VM requires the mask entries to be configured in reverse of 
what one expects in the *nix world (that really crossed me up the first time 
I dealt with it). In short, and please correct me if I am wrong here, Linux 
is configured for a 27 bit subnet and VM is configured for 16 bit (old class 
"B") subnet making the gateway unreachable because it is on a different 
network.
