Since VMware nat device uses the xxx.xxx.xxx.2 ip as the default router and 
nameserver for the target, You shouldn't have configured RedBoot to this ip 
address. Use xxx.xxx.xxx.10 for instance.

Take a look at /etc/vmware/vmnet8/dhcp/dhcp.conf (vmnet8 is the NAT device).

You shoud perhaps configure RedBoot with a static IP (beetwen 3 and 127) and 
let the eCos to be configured with dhcp. That works.
