title: How to connect 2 virtual hosts running on the same machine?
body: <p>I have 2 virtual hosts running on my Windows XP laptop.  One is Ubuntu running inside vmware player.  The other is MS virtual PC (so I can test with IE6 ).  The Ubuntu virtual host is running my web application with apache.  I can point my browser on my laptop at the Ubuntu IP and view my web app.  I read this post <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/197792/how-to-connect-to-host-machine-from-within-virtual-pc-image">How to connect to host machine from within Virtual PC image</a> and was able to get my Virtual PC to ping my physical machine using the loopback adapter.  But I'm stuck on getting my Virtual PC to see my web application running in the Ubuntu vmware player host. </p>
