Save removing it for later...

When you set it to NAT, did you change it to DHCP, you'll have to do
that. It should allow you to reach everything outside the host, but
nothing will be able to get into the VM from outside.

If one VM works with NAT, this one should too...

Do you have some kind of 3rd party firewall in the VM?

Nope. Seems to be working just fine, now. :-)

Well, with one little oddity. I can resolve the ip address for other
machines on the network, it seems. All but one. The host. What's up
with that?

I usually get caught by that one too since they changed the default to NAT. <g>

There is some weirdness between the host and guest, performance problems, and
that might be what's getting in the way. You might be able to just use the IP
Address, or put it in the lmhosts file.
