Ethernet

Yep, you're right. I've got the same prob. No ethernet workin' on vista. Any solution known? Except for this, virtualbox is really a great piece of soft :))

From the FAQ:
There is no networking in Windows Vista guests initially because, unfortunately, with Vista, Microsoft dropped driver support for the virtual AMD PCnet card that we are providing. See "Troubleshooting" -> "Windows guests" in the User Manual for a solution.

Hmm, typically RTFM post from me. Sorry for that. Try to have a look onto the manual.

Thank you!
