I wish to install emule in the guest system windows xp pro sp3 being the host windows seven with 16 GB of ram memory

I have try to apply from the command line the commands :

C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyvm "WindowsXPpro-btwinVA-COMUNICACIONES" --natpf4 "emule,tcp,,4672,,4725"

C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyvm "WindowsXPpro-btwinVACOMUNICACIONES" --natpf4 "emule,udp,,4662,,4694"

being 4694 and 4725 the ports in the guest
The ports 4662 and 4672 are opened in router

What can i do now ?

Best Regards

What is the problem exactly? The ports are not open on the NAT?

probably.
I don't have big experience.
In any case can you give me please the instructions to follow ?

Why are you trying to use NAT port forwarding? Why not use bridged networking?

If using Bridged Networking and UPnP there is no problem.
Using Bridged Networking and no UPnP, set port routing in the router to the guest IP.
Using NAT you need to be a VB and network expert.

For VirtualBox setting: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html#idp11916480
For emule and port forwarding, it is the same as if emule is on the host, except using the IP address of the guest for port forwarding.

I'll try and comment. Time to learnnn
I was trying with several terminals : 192.168.2.4 and 192.168.2.244 for the host and guest respectively.

Done.

I stopped when I don't see the new adapt configuration. But disable the firewall and appear. Then put again the firewall back, configure the IP in the new connection to 192.168.2.244 and the rest was previously done (the router configuration).
