Select Player => Manage => Virtual Machine Settings. Set up shared folder within the VM using VMWare Player: You have GitBash installed on both your host machine and VM. Your host machine that run the virtual machine, can be connected to the network. You have a VMWare virtual machine that cannot be connected to the network directly. Please see the blog post on Building a bridge between a virtual machine and the outside world. Their interface code, implemented in Visual Basic, is not held under revision control and institutional security policies mean that their XP virtual machines cannot be connected to the network. They use Windows XP virtual machines for developing their Distance for Windows software. This guide arose from our open call collaboration with the Distance project at the University of St.
