There is no way for somebody to explain what you need to do without a bit
more detail of your setup. How are the two physical machines connected? What
network setting are you using on the vm?

If the notebook and desktop are connected to the same physical network
and set to get their network config from a DHCP server, this should work
automatically if the vm is set to use the physical NIC in the host. The SQL
server will look like an additional machine on the network to the networking
software.

The software for networking between the host machine and the virtual
machine (Virtual Machine Network Services) works with the driver software
for the network card in your host machine.

If your host is not connected to a network, you need to install a
Microsoft Loopback Adapter in the host machine. Look in the help files on
the host machine on how to do this. When you have this installed you should
see a Loopback Adapter option in the settings for the NIC in your VM. If you
select this option, the guest and host can use this network to communicate.

To install a loopback adapter in Vista, go to Control Panel | Add
Hardware
Select "Install the hardware that I manually select"
Select Network Adapters
Select Microsoft
Select Microsoft Loopback Adapter

You cannot use shared networking. You need to set the NIC in the vm to
use the loopback adapter option. You need to manually configure the loopback
adapter in the host and the NIC in the vm with IP addresses in the same IP
subnet. (eg 192.168.21.1 mask 255.255.255.0 and 192.168.21.2 mask
255.255.255.0).
