I have set an ip and netmask in VirtualBox's Host Netwrok Manager using "Configure Adapter Manually" Then "ip addr" shows:
Code: Select all
10: vboxnet0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 0a:00:27:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.15.1/24 brd 192.168.15.255 scope global vboxnet0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
I can run "ip link set dev vboxnet0 up" and not receive any error, but "ip addr" still shows the link as being DOWN, see above.
In /var/log/messages, sometimes (but not consistently) I receive the following message:
Code: Select all
kernel: IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): vboxnet0: link is not ready
Any ideas on getting host-only networking working ?
