Hello All,
I am trying to setup a Ubuntu VM on my Win 7 host PC. I connect through a corporate VPN, and when I attempt to install Ubuntu it cannot see the internet. (Using NAT network mode). If I use Bridged I am able to see the internet but not access the VPN.
Put another way, I would like to have my VM use the VPN tunnel that is running on my host instead of connecting separately. How do I do this?

That is not easy. A VPN is a point to point connection, not a normal network connection. These normally cannot be routed or shared.

Interesting update: I setup a Ubuntu 10 VM, and it works without changing any settings with "NAT attached" networking. However I cannot get it working with Ubuntu 14.
