Problem with NAT

Post by Gah »

Hi there,

I'm having trouble trying to acess my VM (either by IP or Network). I had read in Help that I should try to Portforward, but it was useless for me. And I can't change de connection type (i.e. Brigde), since I use bridged modem in my machine.

The question is: What should I do to acess my VM?

My problem is:

I can't acess my Guest OS (Linux) in my Host (Vista) network, to acess its Virtual HDD, or by ip (typing the guest ip on Host browser return a connection timeout). But the internet on Guest is normal, and he runs normally. The only problem is this, I am unable to acess the VM.

Try adding a Host only connection. Bridge would be better here, it might worth getting a 25$ switch.
