Guest: Ubuntu 9.04
I'm running dynamic port forwarding on my guest over an ssh connection ala "ssh -C -D 1080 me@externalserver", which effectively creates a SOCKS5 proxy listening on 1080 on the guest. I can configure Firefox within the guest to confirm the successful operation of the proxy.
My Host has been configured as follows for this VM:
Code: Select all
<ExtraDataItem name="VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/socks/HostPort" value="1566"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/socks/GuestPort" value="1080"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/socks/Protocol" value="TCP"/>
Running Wireshark on my guest confirms the receipt of traffic from 10.0.2.2 to 10.0.2.15 on port 1080
No firewall is running on the Host.
What is my problem?
