I'm not sure this is the right place to ask for this, but anyways...
Did you check VMWare's routing settings? You should assign one of the VMWare
ethernet interfaces to the physical interface on your host computer which is
connected to the internet. You should also consider which method you want to
use to connect the guest machine (the VMWare virtual machine) to the
internet. VMWare allows you to either use NAT or have the virtual machine's
interface show as a physical interface on the network. Once that is
configured, you should be able to connect without problems to the internet.
In fact, I have a couple of Debian servers running under VMWare on a Windows
XP platform.
