I just set up a new Win8 machine in VMPlayer (5.0.1 build-894247). As far as I can tell, things seem to be okay but I cannot connect to the existing Windows 7 Homegroup. The Network and Sharing dialog indicates that a Homegroup is available to join but after entering the group password, I get a message that says the homegroup is no longer available....but of course it's still right there.
What's up here? And why is the access type shown as Internet rather than LAN?
Thanks.
