Hey Eugene,

With the exception that I *can* ping the vmnet1 interface but the ICMP echo 
replies from FreeBSD never make it back to the VMware hosted OS, and neither 
side can get the ARP address of the other, I see very much the same symptoms 
as you.

I'm running 4.4-STABLE RC2 (I'm waiting for XFree86-4.2.0 to make it back into 
ports before I update again, as this version works for me).

All my ports and everything in the OS are at the same level (buildworld, 
buildkernel, portupgrade etc). Everything's working great AFAICS, with the 
minor exception of this.

Cheers,

AS
