You can't ping a machine that is behind NAT. Only with HIF you can ping the machine, but you have to configure it properly to see it from the Host. And make sure that no firewall on the machine you want to ping is blocking that.

simha.chow, you might want to browse the Forum Posting Guide. This contains some useful tips on how to search for VBox knowledge and how to frame Qs.
One of the things that we ask is that you don't cross post: stick to one topic for one problem. Opening multiple posts just causes us extra work and doesn't help you. I am locking this one.
