If it's bridged then you can simply configure your router to forward the ports to the guest's IP, otherwise you will have to read the vmware manual on forwarding packets to the guest OS.

Edit: Why are you running the server in a WinXP guest if you have Win7?
I couldnt get it to run alongside with the appserv-mysql i am also using for the forum/website, this is wy i am trying vmware based approach - Overall, how can i check how the connections are treated between vmware and the pc? (ie; how can i find out if its bridged, etc).
