Accessing Server from Host

Post by ecron »

Hey,

I have Debian as my Host system and am have set up an Apache2 server within my VirtualBox, which is also running Debian (Lenny).

I am able to use http://localhost/ within the VBOX and get results and I am also able to access the internet.

I want to be able to access the VBOX server from the host operating system to configure the server (type in the IP address?), but I can not identity the IP...

Thanks,
Ecron

Use ifconfig in a terminal to see the IP address.
