[XP] Set IPs in guests
Posted: 12. Jun 2009, 10:49
Hi,
I have installed everything from scratch and now, with the new VBox version, have some problems, most importantly setting my network settings:
Both Ubuntu and XP as guests install fine (except the 800*600 screen size limit, but I guess I will see to that later), internet works and I can see the other computers in the network. HOWEVER, when I try to set an IP (192.168.0.16x) for them and set the Gateway to 192.168.0.1, Internet stops working and I can't ping anything anymore. I know I got this to work in earlier versions of VBox, could somebody please set me on the right track here? What do I need to change (I guess the VirtualBox Host-Only Network is involved as I remember changing the settings back then as well) to get this to work?
I would appreciate any help, thank you.
