Hi,

I am new in Virtual Box Environment

I have one virtual box Machine having Window 2003 Guest OS [HomenetSQL] with SQL 2008
I have another virtual box Machine having Window 2003 Guest OS [HomenetVS] with visual studio 2005

Both Virtual machines using NAT Adaptors

When I ping virtual machine, each of them show same IP

How do I connect my visual studio on one virtual machine with SQL on another virtual machine?
Which connection string should I use here?

Regards,
Dtalwar

Hi

When I ping virtual machine, each of them show same IP
works as designed, they can't reach each other with NAT setting

use "bridged", or add a second one: "internal networking" to the NAT adaptor
and see the manual => http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html
