First make sure your VMWare machine has a network interface that allows it access to the host. So, in other words: the two machines (host and virtual machine) must be able to "see" each other on the network.

Next, open a Cmd window on the virtual machine and execute ipconfig. That will tell you the IP address of the virtual machine.

Next, ping that IP address. It should work.

If it does, try to access the website on the virtual machine by typing the IP address into a browser on the host machine.
