And the sanity of "did I set up the interface?" was verified.

No FW settings on the VM. This one is a clone of a production  system that
we ssh to as part of regular work.

The DHCP server seems to be the VMWare player.

Windows (host) side:

Ethernet adapter VMware Network Adapter VMnet1:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
   Description . . . . . . . . . . . : VMware Virtual Ethernet Adapter for
VMnet1
   Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-50-56-C0-00-01
   DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
   Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes
   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.118.1(Preferred)
   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
   Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
   NetBIOS over Tcpip. . . . . . . . : Enabled

Linux (VM instance) side: (this is typed as I can't cut and paste from there.


ip addr show eth1
2: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state
P qlen 1000
   link/ehter 00:0c:29:e3:63:d7 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
   inet 192.168.118.128/24 brd 192.168.118.255 scope global eth1
   inet6 <snipped>

ip route
192.168.118.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.118.128

That all looks sane to me.

Curiously tcpdump shows:
11:32:56.130921 arp who-has 192.168.118.1 tell 192.168.118.128
11:32:56.131059 arp reply 192.168.118.1 is-at 00:50:56:c0:00:01

So there's some communication on the line.  The mac addr matches the
Window's mac.

Now researching Windows FW and what happens to VM connections when I've a
VPN connection going.
