who can tell me how to create a guest on my host with a dedicated network card.
I have Ubuntu 8.04 running with virtualBox.
I have two NIC ' s installed (eth0 and eth1)
On the guest OS machine I want a Microsoft machine running directly connected to the Internal network.
If I make a bridge on my second nic(eth1). (with br0 adapter in th interfaces file and VBoxAddif vfor vbox0) it works.
But now my Ubuntu host is transferring al data for MS.
So when I select internal network in the GUI of VirtualBox and say the name off my nic is eth1 .
Windows start and also says there is a nic but cannot connect to the network. (No dhcp or ping whatever total no network connection)
What am I doing wrong.
I just want a guest OS with a dedicated NIC on Ubuntu

The bridge setup is the only way. Internal Network is, as described in the manual, for internal use between VMs so the Host won't be bothered with the network traffic.
