<P><FONT SIZE=2>Well, it can be done. You cant use the same ip cause it is two 'seperate machines' the IP is after all only a 'soft' setting that defines the 'machines' address. You can have a number of addresses on a network card and they can be deprecated or not. Point is it is working with the VMWare. I want to run it stand alone but I have no network then as Ubuntu is not using the Realtek NIC as it should hence the question to the forum!</FONT></P>
