Hi Greg. Have you tried any network configuration yet? It's unclear from the message. If you're starting from scratch, I'd point you to the VirtualBox user guide, specifically section 5.3.3.1 for setting up a bridged connection. Once you've got it to where you can ping other hosts on the network from the guest and vice versa, you'll need to install/configure Samba on the guest to get it working with the MS workgroup. (Samba works over a bridged connection, right guys?) -David Murphy ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a PS3 game guru.
