network problem with edgy

[C.Strobl at dlr.de]

hello all,
i have installed edgy and dapper with standard installation with vmware.
i want to access my data via a windows share (places/connect to server).
with dapper it works fine, with edgy it doesn't work at all. at a first
glance there is no difference between the connection properties if i
look at the networking administrator tool. the only difference is that
at dapper it's called ethernet connection and at edgy it's called wired
connection. but maybe that's the reason why it doesn't work with edgy. i
am not a network specialist at all.
i appreciate every help
thanks and greetings from munich

p.s. the internet connection works fine
