• 问题描述 
  在Linux如果以普通用户运行VMware Workstations，创建虚拟机后提示如下：

The virtual machine’s operating system has attempted to enable promiscuous mode on adapter ‘Ethernet0’. This is not allowed for security reasons. 
Please go to the Web page “http://vmware.com/info?id=161” for help enabling promiscuous mode in the virtual machine.

• 解决办法

  1. 创建一个组，给这个组赋予读写权限，然后将/dev/vmnet0或/dev/vmnet8修改为这个组

  groupadd vmwaregroup 
  usermod -a -G vmwaregroup netseclab 
  chgrp vmwaregroup /dev/vmnet0 
  chgrp vmwaregroup /dev/vmnet8 
  chmod g+rw /dev/vmnet0 
  chmod g+rw /dev/vmnet8

2.简单粗暴

chmod a+rw /dev/vmnet0 
chmod a+rw /dev/vmnet8
