Can th appln server on vm guest talk to DB server on the physical host?

I was wondering if someone could guide me in my problem…I have a VM Guest with CentOS running Websphere Application Server…On the physical host (Windows 7) I have Oracle 10g Database server running…what kind of networking setup should I do to allow the Database server URL be visible from inside the VM Guest….basically I want to know if it is possible for me to hook up the Application Server on the VM
to be able to communicate with the Db Server on the physical host? Appreciate any kind of help…
