Can't use ssh from mac host to the linux guest

Post by sas »

Hi all,

I have installed a linux box (oracle linux) as guest in my mac host. Mac (host) is connecting to internet thru wireless lan. I create an virtual adapter en0 as bridged to the wireless lan. I got DHCP IPs. I can ping in from the linux out, I can ping in the linux from the Mac host and also other PCs. However, I can't get ssh in nor SQL developer. Is there anything I can do?

First guest : Disable firewalls in your host & guest.

For the rest, please attach as a zip file the following :
- VM log file & Guest config - see here
- output of these commands on Host, Guest, and another machine on your network (or equivalent on your system) :
ifconfig -a
route
iptables -L -n -v
netstat -lnp
ping 127.0.0.1
ping 8.8.8.8
ping google-public-dns-a.google.com
