Internal Networking's not working

Post by AbedAZaben »

Hello guys,
I have two guest Os's
1)Windows XP SP1
2)BackTrack4 - Ubuntu

so they are both working on Internal Network (Name = "Abed's), and it's configured using this command:

Code: Select all

VBoxManage dhcpserver add --netname "Abed's" --ip 192.168.0.1 --lowerip 192.168.0.2 --upperip 192.168.0.100 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --enable

everything seems to work, but when I try to get the guests to have the IP's it gives limited access, and I can't ping anything!!!
the ip of XP gives an IP different from the range specified!!!

Solved :)
When I created the Virtual Machines I ran the VirtualBox as administrator, but when I configured the dhcpserver I did it as a normal user, so I just re-opened the CMD and re-configured "Abed's" netname and everything is working now :)
