Its okay now you can stop fixing it all, it will all be fine  :D

Does anyone know that if you can have Windows networked to Linux(running vmware to run windows) without having network media (but still a network card). Or can you do it without a network card? Or do I at least need to be plugged into a hub or something? or perhaps 2 network cards with a crossover cable? what are the rules as far as networking the two?

could you clarify what you mean, do you want this:

Windows <-----> Windows on vmware

Oh god no, i'd have to shoot myself. I am running windows on my machine and linux through vmware... i'll be doing it vise-versa later, but this is to get a friend used to linux. What I would like to do is show the networking power of linux by allowing it to communicate to the windows os that is running. My question is do I need to use my network card or can it emulate one?

Master of Reality:
how are the two computers going to be networked if there is no network card????????????

Stryker:
Because linux isn't being run on a machine by itself, it's being run through vmware on the same machine at the same time.
