It's hard to tell for sure from what you've posted (lots of networking
things could be afoot), but what does your
/etc/cobbler/dnsmasq.template
look like? How about the generated /etc/dnsmasq.conf? Those are a
few things to start with. Since you didn't mention editing
/etc/cobbler/dnsmasq.conf it might not be correct for your
environment.
There are some setup instructions including information at logging
here:
http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/setup.html -- keep in mind
that cobbler will generate
it's own dnsmasq.conf based on the template, and the same for
/etc/ethers and /var/lib/cobbler/cobbler_hosts -- but that should give
you some idea of how it all works.

I've tried a few variations on /etc/cobbler/dnsmasq.template
Here's my latest:
$cat /etc/cobbler/dnsmasq.template
# Cobbler generated configuration file for dnsmasq
# $date
#
# resolve.conf .. ?
#no-poll
#enable-dbus
read-ethers
addn-hosts = /var/lib/cobbler/cobbler_hosts
dhcp-range=10.0.0.128 <http://10.0.0.128>, 10.0.0.254 <http://10.0.0.254>
dhcp-option=3,$next_server
dhcp-lease-max=1000
dhcp-authoritative
dhcp-boot=pxelinux.0
dhcp-boot=net:normalarch,pxelinux.0
dhcp-boot=net:ia64,$elilo
$insert_cobbler_system_definitions
And the resulting
$cat /etc/dnsmasq.conf
# Cobbler generated configuration file for dnsmasq
# Thu Aug 9 15:42:24 2007
# resolve.conf .. ?
#no-poll
#enable-dbus
read-ethers
addn-hosts = /var/lib/cobbler/cobbler_hosts
dhcp-range= 10.0.0.128 <http://10.0.0.128>, 10.0.0.254 <http://10.0.0.254>
dhcp-option=3,10.0.0.21 <http://10.0.0.21>
dhcp-lease-max=1000
dhcp-authoritative
dhcp-boot=pxelinux.0
dhcp-boot=net:normalarch, pxelinux.0
dhcp-boot=net:ia64,elilo-3.6-ia64.efi
and
$ cat /etc/ethers
00:50:56:00:00:FF 10.0.0.66 <http://10.0.0.66>
and
$ cat /var/lib/cobbler/cobbler_hosts
10.0.0.66 <http://10.0.0.66> ctl01.sms
Still pxeboot complains: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received.

Individual networking issues are beyond my ability to debug over email,
and probably the scope of this list.
You might want to see if you get the same problem with ISC and whether
you get DHCP offers for your VMware
guests when using your existing DHCP config.
If any of those remove the problem, you have a dnsmasq config problem --
otherwise, it might be something
else. I would think VMware would PXE just like anything else, but I
have no idea what all the pieces
to the puzzle are.
Sorry I can't be of any more help.
