vmware-workstation

Setup: Host is running Windows7. Virtual PC is a Windows Server 2008 running under VMWare workstation 6.5.

From the Host I have a VPN to e.g. TFS and other resources. From the VPC I need to connect to e.g. a SQL server via the VPN.

My problem is, that I cannot get a connection from the VPC. If I'm sitting on the corporate network, all is working fine (but then I don't have the VPN). From home - where the VPN is required - it does not work.

I have two network adapters defined/configued. One as BRIDGED and one as Host Only. IF I change the one being BRIDTED to NATS I have no connectivity at all from the VPC.

I have no problems connecting from my host to the VPC.

Thanks.
