I've got an idea - if you were saying that ping host->guest is fine, but other way around it does not work. Can you apply ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/vmware/vmware-ws-1455-update5.tar.gz to your VMware 3.x? Stock vmware-3.x modules use netif_rx() instead of netif_rx_ni(), and so network bottom half was not run under some conditions.
Patch also allows you to run VMware on 2.5.3-pre5, BTW. Best regards, Petr Vandrovec vandrove@vc.cvut.cz
