Windows XP does not grab IP of configured network adapter
Posted: 2. Feb 2013, 06:26
Hello,
First, I am a newbie to VirtualBox.
I've setup VirtualBox to have the following settings for host-only networks.
VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter #1:
IPv4 address: 10.10.0.4
Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
Then, I've created a Windows XP SP3 VM which has the following network settings:
Adapter 1: Enabled
Attached to: Host-only adapter
Name: Virtual Host-Only Ethernet Adapter #1
The problem is, when I start my Win XP VM, when looking at the network adapter, it isn't configured at all. Even if I force the adapter once in the VM with the required settings, nothing works.
Any ideas would be really welcome,
Thanks
