DHCP Issuing Same IP for All Guests

Post by tangiblebox »

I had 2.0.4 OSE running great on Ubuntu 8.10 for about 4 months then all of the sudden I noticed that all of the guests I run are pulling the same IP address, 10.0.2.15. I tried a restart with no luck several times and then after searching all through the VB forums, manual and the internet I am completely stumped. I then tried an upgrade today to version 2.2.0 PUEL with no luck. Is there a way to reset the DHCP server somehow? I have 3 W2K3 Server guests and 2 XP Pro guests.

Switch to bridged in VBox if you need separate addresses on the guests.
Host Interface if you are still in version 2.0.4
