Hi again, I did the try but still neither host can ping the guest nor the guest is able to ping the host. I used Putty to connect via SSH and the message is: PuTTY Fatal Error: Network error: Connection timed out Please Perryg, I need the static ip in the guest because there will run a DNS and an ht...

I'm gonna try with your addresses but in the meanwhile my question is:
- is it possible to use an address different from the default? I mean I meant to use a static ip 10.10.1.100 for the guest, is that possible or I have to use necessarily the 192.168.56.* and with dinamic ip?

No, I'm sure ssh port is always open. If I enable the internet connection I can ping on 192.168.2.6 which is the IP address of the guest in bridged network. but I never can ping to 10.10.1.101

Thanks Perryg, I uninstalled and installed VB, now I see the host-only adapter again but my initial problem is still there. I cannot neither ping nor using ssh, only http is allowed! The output of the VBoxManage.exe list -l dhcpservers is Oracle VM VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Versio...

VBoxManage.exe hostonlyif create
I got:
0%...FAILED
Error: Failed to create the host-only adapter. No error message available, HRESULT code: 0x80004005

As I expected the creation of a new host only adapter failed. Please help!

Thanks, but that is strange because from the VB settings there is only one host-only adapter with 10.10.1.100 without dhcp, instead VBoxManager says there are two and the first has different ip address. In the past I tryed to add another host-only interface but then I removed it and removed also the...

Thanks Perryg, ping does not work in both directions if I disable the bridged connections. I'm attacching what you requested. In the meantime I had to install a second bridged connection for my wireless at home but I disabled it for the try. the host-only network is mapped to eth3 (I was not able to...

is there anyone who can help on this topic?
Thanks in advance

Hi guys, I installed VirualBox on Vista and created a guest ubuntu server on my laptop. The network configuration is the following: - the guest is connected to internet using a bridged network adapter - the guest is connected to the host using an host-only adapter. When my laptop is phisically conne...
