I was thinking about something like this: Edit the xml configuration file for our virtual machine. On Windows, it’s inside the .VirtualBox/Machines subdirectory in your home folder. At the top of the file you should see an <ExtraData> tag. Inside that tag, copy in the following tags: <ExtraDataItem ...

How would NAT "only" with port forwarding fit into the picture?

Thank you. I am still trying to piece all the information and eliminate some of the options, so I can make sure I am going in the righgt direction with this. I updated VB to the newest version and reinstalled Linux all over again. I have it at Host-only and NAT and I am sure that all the settings ar...

So that means that I can use either one of these options? (not having a router)

1) Bridged Adapter only (but it is more complicated to set it up)
2) Host-only Adapter + NAT at the same time

I would like to connect Linux guest on Windows host and there is not too much info about it in the manual. Does anybody know if Bridged Adapter option (a lot of people recommend that, about 80%) is reserved only for people who have a router (physical device at home), and if I dont have one I need to...

I thik I was able to piece it all together and I am able to ping in both directions. I read somewhere that I should be able to connect to the guest (Linux) with Putty (username: root, password: <myPasswordForRoot>, or another username that is valid etc). I tired and I was not able to. I also looked ...

There are suppose to be three ways to get this to work: 1) Adapter 1 - Host-only Adapter (for connection between guest and host) + Adapter 2 NAT (to enable Internet connection for the guest); I have pictures here and I am not able to get it to work: http://tinyurl.com/7694ww6 2) Bridged Adapter - I ...

I added some additional pictures on the bottom (XAMPP running both on Windows and Linux). It looks like Linux is able to connect to the host with an IP in the address bar, but not the other way around. I was not sure if I should change it to what it is on the screen, because IP addresses are differe...

Here is some photos (more than enough, but less important ones are on the bottom): http://www.joliett89.comli.com/ I changed the settings, but I was not 100% sure about DHCP Server (I think I had this one automatically configured begfore, but this time I had to come up with the numbers by myself). I...

I've beet trying to get it to work all day, and as of right now I have 1) Host-only network and 2) NAT I installed XAMPP for Linux so I am sure Apache it is working etc. This is what I get from ifconfig: th5 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:27:47:1B:D1 inet6 addr: fe80::a00:27ff:fe47:1bd1/64 Scope:L...

I went to File -> Preferences -> Network -> Host-only Network Details and I changed the settings according to the previous post. Every time I try to click OK and get out I get a message: Do you want the following program to make the changes (it is some VB .exe program). No matter if I choose Yes or ...

I turned off Windows Firewall and that did not make a difference. I will look at Main Manager in a minute, if thats something else than File -> Preferences... or File -> Virtual Media Manager. As far as CentOS -> Settings -> Network, is the following correct: 1) Attached to: Host-only Adapter Name: ...

http://192.168.56.101/ works from withing Linux (it goes to the default Apache page), but not from Windows. http://192.168.56.1/ does not work anywhere

I can ping both 192.168.56.1 and 192.168.56.101 from Win cmd and get results...

Thank you, I was actually just looking at that: CENTOS: [root@localhost ~]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:27:2B:94:89 inet addr:192.168.56.101 Bcast:192.168.56.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::a00:27ff:fe2b:9489/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 ...
