Complete Newbie

Post by gdonwallace »

I Just upgraded to the 64 bit version of Ubuntu and have the latest version of Virtual Box (2.2.2)
We use VMware to create the appliances that we connect with, and those are stored on a seperate machine on our internal network.

I am confused as to how to get Virtual box to see that internal network and grab the appliances we have setup on a dedicated machine.

Also, we are using DHCP, and I downloaded the previous version just a few days ago and was having the same problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks
