network connection problem using ubuntu as guest on XP host
Posted: 22. Oct 2008, 12:47
Hi friends,
I've installed the Sun xVM virtualbox 1.6 on my XP. Then I installed the ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty FAWN) as a guest OS.
I've a small problem that I can't connect to Internet or the shared network drives (shared through SAMBA) on the guest Ubuntu system. I've tried to use both the NAT and Host Interface options.
The network is established as I can see the "two monitors" blinking both in Host (XP) and Guest (Ubuntu), but I can't see the shared drive as well as cant connect to Internet.
If somebody could help me, it would be a great favor.
