Greetings!
Running XP Pro as host, Ubuntu 9 as guest.
Also have guest with Win 7 RC.

Several local boxes and standard router. Local boxes all running XP (Home, Pro)
With standard install, Guest could see Internet fine, couldn't browse local network.

First guest ethernet adapter was NAT. Added bridged adapter, now can browse local network fine.

Will do more testing. For now, looks good. Will discuss Win 7 on seperate post.
