how to network?

Post by najoshi »

Hi,

Please help me to solve the problem:

PROBLEM:

Laptop-1 has Fedora 9 (2.6.25) GUEST; & Windows XP(SP3) HOST; & VirtualBox 3.2.10
Laptop-2 has Fedora 9 (2.6.25)

I want to connect Fedora 9(laptop-2) to the Fedora 9 GUEST(laptop-1).

1. Which Adapter should I use in VirtualMachine's settings?(Bridged OR Host-only)?
2. How should I do this? i.e. Please tell me the steps.

Thanks.

You have to use Bridged.

Look into the User Manual.
