Configuring and Administering VMWare
Solving Problems with parport under linux
Sometimes it is not possible to connect of /dev/parport0 to virtual machine. My solution under Suse 10.2 and VMWarePlayer was:to secure, that /dev/parport0 is in right form
rm /dev/parport0
mknod /dev/parport0 c 99 0
rccups stop
rmmod lp
chmod 666 /dev/parport0
Then I was able to connect the dongle on ppt to the VM
