Simon,
So far my experience have been you need two nics to keep the system and
virtual apart.

thank you

<|>
<|>I am planning to setup a honeypot using VMWare 4 and several different
<|>Windows OS's to see what I can get infected/hacked so I can learn more
<|>about
<|>protecting my systems.
<|>
<|>Can I setup VMWare so that I can access the Virtual machine but the
<|>Virtual
<|>machine can't access my system? If so, how? If I do this, do I setup a
<|>sniffer on the Virtual machine or my system to look at the traffic?
<|>
<|>On a related note, will a worm/virus act differently on a Virtual machine
<|>than on a real system?

<|>Thanks
