Currently, my setup here consists of an SMP i386 running 5.0-current and
XFree86 3.3.6. I've gone through the motions to get VMware2 to work
today. I installed it from the ports collection (cvsupped a few hours
ago); then added "options   COMPAT_LINUX" to my kernel; installed the
linuxprocfs port from http://www.mindspring.com/~vsilyaev/vmware/....
now when i start it, I'm getting an error about "gethostbyname()
failed". Any clue how i could resolve this? TIA.
