Hi Gene,
My VMWare WS 10 is running on debian wheezy. The client machine connects
to host machine via vmnet1. I have dhcpd service on debian wheezy:
root      8433     1  0 21:19 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/dhcpd -q -cf
/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf -pf /var/run/dhcpd.pid eth1 vmnet1
Thanks.

Steven.

vNIC not VMNet.  AMD PCNet32 vlance, Intel e1000, Intel e1000e, VMware
VMXNet3?  Feel free to directly email me your .vmx file if you don't know.

VMXNet3?  Feel free to directly email me your .vmx file if you don't know.

So that should be vlance or flexible (which can be PCNet32 or e1000).
Could you verify with a real OS?

I see it has two cores per socket. Is it one socket? What exact make/model
is the CPU in the host? You might be choking the VM.  Have you considered
just 1 socket and 1 core per socket?
