Hi all,
I've a router with mac filtering.
WinXP host and ubuntu904 as guest.

After having started the bridge, winxp stop to communicate.
I've understood that bridge offer a different macaddress to the net, so I add the bridge mac in the router's filter ad winxp it's now ok.
I still have problem with guest. I cannot receive an ip address. Ubuntu link goes up if I manually configure the protocol (correct class, gateway etc.) but I cannot ping host or gateway...

What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks very much!

Using Bridge the Guest will have its own MAC address.

Does not work.

I've assigned to vbcard this MAC: 08:00:00:00:00:02 and I've created a rule on the router.
In ubuntu's 'wired network connections' I've fixed ipaddress, gateway, dns etc but I'm not able to ping..

There's no chance... what I should do ?
Thanks

Can the Guest ping the Host? firewall anywhere?

No, it cannot.

>firewall anywhere?
Windows firewall... but it does not block ping...
