FTP session from Host to Virtualbox VM: Connection Error
Posted: 20. Jul 2021, 07:35
Hello,
I have set up a RHEL8 VM using virtualbox on my Windows 10 laptop.
In my virtualbox settings, I have the following Network settings:
Enable Network Adapter is checked
Attached to Bridge Adapter
Adapter Type is Paravirtualized Network (virtio-net)
Promiscuous Mode is Allow All
MAC Address is selected for the adapter
Cable Connected is unchecked as I am using WiFi adapter
I am trying to use mobaxterm from my Windows to initiate an ftp client session to the VM, after starting the vsftpd daemon on the VM. I am using the IP address that I get using ifconfig on the VM for this session. The output of the command shows the inet address for a virbr0 network (I cannot copy and paste the output of the ifconfig command here as I do not have guestadditions installed).
However the ftp client connection from mobaxterm returns a connection error.
Any thoughts on what could be wrong with the virtualbox settings that is causing this error?
TIA
Vinod
