[Solved] Web Can't Connect to server on Guest

Post by loudog23 »

Hi everyone,

I run VB OSE
Host is Ubuntu desktop 9.04
Guest is Ubuntu Server 9.04

Guest addition is installed (share folder work fine)
I can acces the web from the Guest (update & upgrades & apt-get works fine)
Ip tables in guest are open
Ports in router are forwarded to Guest Ip Address
Guest is configured with Host Interface
I can connect from host to guest no problem
My friends can't connect from the internet

What did i miss?
Do i need to forward the ports with VBoxManage? (suppose to be now automated with the "Host Interface" setting)
Do i need to open Iptabel on host too? (my router have a specific IP address for the guest)

thanks

What is you friend trying to connect to on your server?
What are the addresses on the guest and host?
What is the NIC address on the router, LAN side?

DO NOT post the WAN side address!

THe problem was abour DDNs Configuration.
