I'm new to VMware and despite having read the documentations, I'm having trouble.

I'm using VMware workstation Stand-Alone package to turn a physical Win Server 2008 R2 into a usable VM appliance.

The source and destination part is getting me here.

It seems using keyword "localhost" doesn't cut all the way through. Does the shared folder have to be in my local drive for that matter?

For ip, am I using the simple private IP that my nearest DHCP has given me? But what if I have more than one interfaces that have two or three different private ip addresses?

Thanks.
