Change if necessary these settings in /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2:
FW_MASQUERADE="yes"
FW_MASQ_DEV="$FW_DEV_EXT"
FW_MASQ_NETS="0/0"
Then restart the firewall, "rcSuSEfirewall2 restart". You will probably need
to restart the firewall the first time you start up VMware after a boot. If
the interface isn't up when the firewall is started it isn't included. Once
this works, you can be more restrictive if you wish, read the comment before
FW_MASQ_NETS.
