First "root@192.168.10.2" is not a "Host Name (or IP address)". You need to lose the root@ from that as putty has another field for the username. Next thing to check is the networking mode that you told VMWare to use - most likely it needs to be "bridged" or whatever VMWare calls it.

If you use NAT then you must use an ip address that's within the subnet that it wants you to use - i.e. pick one in the same subnet that you would get from using DHCP.
