[Solved] Set up Static IP on VM running Server 2008
Posted: 1. Aug 2009, 05:48
Hello all,
I'm just getting my feet wet with VirtualBox 3.0.2.
I just finished installing Windows Server 2008.
I need to assign it a static IP address of 192.168.1.10 with a 24-bit subnet mask.
My router address is 192.168.1.1
I'm setting up 2008 to be a domain controller with DHCP and DNS services running, so I need a static IP address (since I'm creating set up documentation for server 2008)
But when I assign myself the static ip address, subnet mask and gateway..I can not get out of local only mode..when I set the server NIC to dhcp, i'm issued 10.0.2.15 as an address and 10.0.2.2 as the gateway, and can access the internet
Any ideas on what i'm missing or where I should start?
Thanks in advance gang..
