allowing RPC access for windows guest, linux host

[tomaskCZ1]

is it possible to have RPC running and accessible on windows guest under virtualbox ?
It is running as a service on windows, but it doesn't seem reachable from the outside unlike RDP for example, which can be allowed directly in virtual machine settings.

Networking type is 'Bridge'

Firewall issue maybe?

[tomaskCZ1]

no there is no firewall, iptables seems clear on the linux host, but it won't let the RPC connect to the guest machine from the outside

Code: Select all

sudo iptables -L

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
