I've really confused myself with this one. I installed VMWare Server 2 in Karmic last night as well as the patch.
I was accesing the browser console for a few minutes until I got a message saying Firefox couldn't load the page and that it may be a problem with my internet or a firewall. But the internet worked fine for regular websites. I came back a while later and nothing would load, the VMWare console or regular websites. Same error each time. Now, the VMWare console works fine, but regular websites will not load. However I still connect to my network with no problems (as far as I can see) and the internet works on other computers on my router.
I cannot figure out what I did to cause this problem. The only thing that I can remember doing incorrectly was during the configuration of VMWare where you hit enter to accept the defaults, I got into a habit of hitting it without reading and selected eth0 as my host connection as bridged, when I really use eth2. Could this be the cause? Or any other thoughts about what could have done it?
Just to be clear, I'm saying I cannot connect to the internet in the host Ubuntu desktop, let alone my virtualized Vista.
