VPN connections in VMware virtual machines

Not a hint.

This is entirely dependent on your particular VPN software and configuration, and the situation changes from version to version (of both VPN software and VMWare).

For what it's worth, I have no problems with the AT&T Net Client VPN inside VMWare Fusion 1.1.2 when using NAT.

I concur. This is not a hint.

It makes perfect sense what is said.

If you wish to use the VPN set up on the host OS, then you use NAT. If you wish to use the 'net connection set up on the host, then you use NAT.

If you wish to set up a VPN on the guest OS, then you use bridging. If you wish to set you your own 'net connection on the guest, then you use bridging.

However, this is just a logical conclusion. It doesn't provide any new information.
