no network on mac host with bridge
Posted: 4. Jan 2009, 17:15
hi,
i installed debian linux in virtualbox 2.1 on mac os x 10.5.6. with nat networking everything works fine. when i switch to bridged network (host controller -> airport), both my network connections in linux and mac os x stop working.
the interessting part is, that the linux client does get an ip (my local network uses the 192.168.5.x range), e.g.: 192.168.5.71. routes and resolve.conf look fine (router and dns is: 192.168.5.11).
with the newest version of virtualbox the client's network works for a short time (was able to install openssh-server), but stops then (pinging the router gives "destination host unreachable").
unfortunatly networking on my mac ox x host then stops working, too!! no dns resolution, nothing. i have to reboot to get it working again. closing virtualbox is not sufficient.
anyone else experiencing this? any clues?
regards,
Tobias
