No Internet with OpenSolaris Guest

I installed the latest version of OpenSolaris as a guest (VirtualBox 1.6) on a WindowsXP Pro host. I can't connect to the Internet from Solaris? Has anyone had the same problem, and were you able to fix it? Thanks.

I had the same problem with Opensolaris 2008.5 and Solaris build 79.
You just need to reboot one more time the virtual machine.
If it still doesn't work, you may want to try using the Intel Pro 1000 network interface.

I ran into the same problem with the final version of OpenSolaris 2008.05
and VirtualBox 1.6. The first time I boot, networking doesn't work. If I
reboot, networking starts working.

This seems like a bug somewhere. Has anyone filed a bug against this?
