Raw message

Hi,
      I am trying to setup Grase Hotspot in VMware Workstation 9 with
Windows 7 host. I have always-on static ip type ethernet internet
connection. I have configured VMware like this. VMnet0 is in NAT mode with
my WAN. I don't know what to do with second NIC (VMnet2) so I kept in
Bridged mode (right or not I don't know). I tried to keep VMnet0 in bridged
mode but I saw that I was not being able to access internet simultaneously
in Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. So I changed the configuration to keep it
into NAT mode. This is all done in VMware's Virtual Network Editor. Am I
right in doing this? What settings are to be made Network Adapter in the
Virtual Machine (Ubuntu in this case) Settings (The option we get by right
clicking the virtual machine settings)? I am very new to vmware as well as
ubuntu. Also, can you please help me know what are the minimum Ubuntu
processes or packages required for the Grase to work properly as I want to
reduce it's memory usage.

Please help.

Thanks.
