Having one now in my VM that will be fbsd9+zfs (testing stuff for my environment). The only way I can get proper access to the outside world is to allow VMWare or VBox to install the Bridgeing Adapter. In the VM Software, choose the bridging device and then choose any network device the VM offers you (in vBox I have 2 PCINET devices and 3 others, the choice doesn't matter really). When I assigned a static IP to the VM (in my case 192.168.0.20) but it doesn't work (be sure yo set the default route, 'route add gateway <IP>). The only way I had it working was to let DHCP get an IP at the command line w/ 'dhclient -q <DEVICE_NAME>'. Anyway, hope that helps a little.
