    <p>I have a mac running OS X that I need to connect to my company intranet. They have a specific program to do that and it only runs on Windows. I created a windows virtual machine with vmware and I connected it to the VPN. </p> <p><strong>No, I can't use an alternative program in OS X to connect - like IPSec(protocol), AT&amp;T, etc - and I don't want to reverse engineer the company's tool.</strong></p> <p>What I need to do now is route the OS X network connection through the windows VM.</p> <p>Vmware already created a virtual network interface to connect between Windows and OS X.</p> <p>OS X:</p> <pre><code>$ifconfig vmnet8 vmnet8: flags=8863&lt;UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST&gt; mtu 1500 ether 00:50:56:c0:00:08 inet 172.16.27.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.27.255 </code></pre> <p>I can ping the Windows 7 VM from OS X:</p> <pre><code>$ ping 172.16.27.2 | | | | | | vmware(NAT) | | |Mac (172.16.27.1) |&lt;-----------&gt;|Win(172.16.27.2) | | | | | </code></pre> <p>The company's tool created a virtual interface called "Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2" that contains the company's intranet IP:</p> <pre><code>Windows IP Configuration Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::c1ab:2fe6:40f5:5fa2%14 IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.8.15.150 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : localdomain Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::7cd7:a40c:336a:69ae%11 IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 172.16.27.132 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 172.16.27.2 </code></pre> <p>How can I access "10.8.15.150" from OS X?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
