FreeBSD team is still working on brdiged networking. Until then, if I create a bridged tap connection(tap0) myself, how do I get VBOX to use this? I'm presuming there's some config file or I'll have to launch the VM from the command line to use my tap connection.
Thanks,
Monty

Re: How to use TAP networking for VBOX 2.2
Try to compile the code with VBOX_WITH_NETFLT=. The code is disabled but maintained at least for Linux hosts. Search for occurrences of VBOX_WITH_NETFLT in src/VBox/Main and add the missing FreeBSD code.
