If I remember properly, this is an old problem of yours. But now that you say 
that server checks for IP, it strikes me that the problem is not with 
mplayer, but your IP/proxy configuration. Vmware client may have bridged 
networking activated, and so completely independent network configuration 
(probably DHCP served), so it just works.

Maybe you should check your network settings, eventualy letting dhcp manage 
your IP etc, and then try mplayer. And turn off firewall and selinux while 
checking, those may also be the source of problems...

Best, :-)
