NAT networking with ht tps wget to port 8080

Post by MrSteve »

Hello,

I am seeing something the looks like it might be a problem with NAT, wget, ht tps tn port 8080.

Host; Win7 x64
Guest: Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop amd64 (LiveCD or installed).

Using wget to connect to a host that using ht tps to port 8080 I get connection timeouts.

wget to hosts using ht tps on port 443 work fine. If I switch to using bridge networking wget works fine. If I use Firefox in Ubuntu, it works fine with both bridge and NAT.

Does this sound familiar to anyone, or suggestions of things to check?

Thanks,
Steve.
