IP configuration to connect application server installed in vmware win2003.

Hi Experts,

I have one ides application server installed in a VM (OS - win 2003). I am using Win 7 on physical machine. Now i want to setup such a network by which I can access my IDES server from any where through internet , which is installed in VM. If possible I also want to configure both the systems to access ides from win7 of my Physical machine (without internet). If possible kindly suggest with examples.

Kindly help me out I am new to all these networking techniques but I can understand & follow the suggestions properly........

Thanks
