Wait, so you are running Linux in VMware under Windows?
I'm doing the opposite (Linux host, XP guest) and my virtual machine
doesn't even have a modem.  If this is what you are doing, then the way to
connect to the Internet is to use Windows to establish the modem
connection and use VMware NAT networking to provide access to the VM.
