[Solved] Inbound traffic blocked?

I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 in VirtualBox 3.0.4 on Vista and for some reason I can get on the Internet and access Windows shares on the host network but none of my host machines can access the virtual Ubuntu. The network setting is set to NAT in VirtualBox. How do I get access to virtual machine from host machines?

Switch to Bridge networking, NAT is not (really) suitable for Guest shares.
