Other Computers On Network can't access VM??? help!

Post by JessaP »

I have limited experience with Virtual Box and virtual servers, period.
We have some software that was sent to us to be uploaded via virtual box. I have done this and everything seemed to be working well. I could access the VM using the ip on my computer, which is the host computer, with no problems, even others on the network could as well.

Now, for some reason, no one can access this VM? It gives the error that it "refused to connect'. But i have to add, that this doesn't happen everytime. Sometimes when you go to access it it works fine, on all computers. Its just acting "spotty".

Any advice? I need this working, ASAP!

Please attach the guest's .vbox 'recipe' file as a zip file, using the Upload Attachment tab under the textbox where you type new posts. You can find the guest's .vbox file by right-clicking the guest in the main Virtualbox window and choosing Show in Explorer. Be sure your host OS is set to show known extensions.

Once we see how your guest is presently set up, we can see what changes need to be made.
