So I have Virtualbox 5.1.6 installed on an Ubuntu host, running an Ubuntu Guest.
I have my network setup as a "Host-Only Adapter".
I am testing a DNS server and on the guest it is working fine.
"guest@guest:~$ dig example @192.168.10.10" = GREAT SUCCESS!
I can connect to my virtualbox from my host computer.
"host@host:~$ ping 192.168.10.10" = GREAT SUCCESS!
However when I attempt
"host@host:~$ dig example @192.168.10.10" = GREAT FAILURE! - (connection timed out; no servers could be reached).
*** note: 'example' has the relevant com at the end, however this site would not let me post urls
Also I have turned the firewall off, so that is not the problem
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
