From the WinXP Guest, I want to create a network connection to the Mac OS X Host.
I tried to decipher the UserManual Section 6 ("Virtual networking"), but I cannot find the case that fits.
I know my Mac is 192.168.1.200, but if I PING that from the WinXP Guest it times out.
How do I access the Host and how do I define that network connection?

You would need to use Bridged or host-only to be able to talk to the host from the guest.

Host-Only is just what I needed!
