A VPN is a secure connection between the VPN client and the VPN server. The VPN connection is designed to prevent other machines from using the connection. In your case the host is one of those other machines.

Yes, you set up a loopback adapter on the host, then configure the VM to use it as its NIC and you will be able to have host-guest communication. IIRC, there is a detailed help file in VPC for this. -- Cheers, Steve Jain, Virtual Machine MVP http://vpc.essjae.com/ http://smudj.wordpress.com/ |
