I am running VMware Fusion on my Mac (10.6) with an Ubuntu 9.10 (32 bit) VM for my development environment. How would I setup SSH to be able to SSH into the Ubuntu VM from the Mac? Also, when I am testing websites in browsers, how would I set it up so that I can go to the site on FF on the Mac and have it point to the site running on the Apache server on Ubuntu?

You need to set the VM networking in a "bridged" mode. That way, your VM will have it's own IP address. They you access it like you would access any other server.

Thank you. Will this IP address ever change? – roflwaffle Mar 16 '10 at 17:47

@Brandon, that would depend on your network. You could set a static address or you could set a reservation on your DHCP server. – Zoredache Mar 16 '10 at 18:02
