Additional 2 extra network adapters, how?

Post by Jchen2012 »

I tried to do it, but it is not working. What is the correct way to add two addictional network adapters?

C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyvm "Adapter 5" --nic5 hostonly --hostonlyadapter5 vboxnet1 --nictype5 82545EM --cableconnected5 on
VBoxManage.exe: error: Could not find a registered machine named 'Adapter 5'
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001), component VirtualBox, interface IVirtualBox, callee IUnknown
Context: "FindMachine(Bstr(a->argv[0]).raw(), machine.asOutParam())" at line 370 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp

Thanks in advance for your help.

You forgot the vm name and it is trying to use adapter 5 instead.
