Hi Chris,

I use FreeBSD version 8.1, the host OS is Ubuntu 10.10. The host OS =
could connect to the Internet correctly. This host uses a private IP =
address. Yes, I allowed the VM software to install the bridge adapter =
now, when booting there are some msgs "no DHCP offers received". =
Actually I am a little confused where the DHCP server is, do I need to =
install a DHCP server? Also, do I need to add that line =
"ifconfig_le0/pcn0=3D"DHCP" in /etc/rc.conf?
I am also don't understand how to set the static IP address since when =
setting a static IP address, we should have a router interface address, =
right? But now it's only a virtual machine running on a real machine, =
how can we do that?
Thank you so much for your help. I am sorry for bring you so much =
trouble.=20

Best,
W.W.=
