If your mother ever locks her bicycle and happens to throw away the key, this is what you'd have to do :)

Just posting this in case someone does a search via google…

To assign a fixed MAC-Adress to a VM, you'll have to edit the matching .vmx and do the following things:

1. uncomment everything involving "ethernet0.generated";

2. insert these two lines:

ethernet0.address = 00:50:56:0D:xx:xx
ethernet0.addressType = static

(you can chose whatever hex you want for xx:xx)

Lart.jpg

A Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool (abbreviated LART) is "something large, heavy and painful, used to respond appropriately to particularly annoying lusers."; A LART can by definition be anything from a pat on the back, to a small tactical nuclear attack, depending on how much adjustment the attitude needs. Names for specific types of LARTs include cluebat, clue stick, Clueisville Slugger, clue-by-four and Board of Education. The abbreviation was retrofitted to Lumber Assisted Reallocation as Treefood out of respect to the Lumber Cartel. See also Banhammer.

Just wanted to give you a quick Link to the offline-Blogging Editor I am testing out at the Moment. It's called "Quamana" and it's doing a fine job so far. As you can see Image upload is working nicely (using wordress integrated features and not FTP). It's available over at http://www.qumana.com/ for OSX and Windows. They've got some advertising programm going as well which is neatly integrated into the client (but as I'd prefer adsense)
