Network problems in bridged mode
Posted: 9. Dec 2010, 07:12
Hi,
after some fiddling I got Linux running on a FreeBSD 8.1 host in bridged mode with several IPs. I cloned the hosts MAC address and need to manually set the ARP entry for the gateway for some reason.
At least I can SSH into the guest now -- but the connection always breaks down after about 35 seconds. Outbound connections don't work either:
$ curl virtualbox.org
curl: (52) Empty reply from server
Also tried booting a different distribution from CD with the same results...
Any idea?
Kind regards,
Steffen
