Win 7 Host, Linux Ubuntu guest, DHCP server

[Dedmytas]

Hello all,
First of all, I am sorry if I am repeating other users, I did search and Google, but now I am just confused.

I am using VirtualBox v4.3.2r90405, my host OS is Windows 7 64 bit, I have 8 GB of ram and my Linux Ubuntu 13.10 guest OS has 512 MB of RAM assigned to it.

I need to set up a DHCP server configuration and a DHCP relay.

I currently have 2 Virtual Machines:

1) on my DHCP Server VM I've set up isc-dhcp-server
2) my client (not relay) VM

Both of the VMs' network mode is set to NAT.

In the /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf file these are the only changes I've made:

Code: Select all

subnet 10.0.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0{
range 10.0.2.10 10.0.2.15;
option domain-name-servers 10.0.2.1, 8.8.4.4;
option routers 10.0.2.1;
option broadcast-address 10.0.2.255
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200
}

Now, I have restarted the VMs.

I check the status of isc-dhcp-server, but it tells me that it doesn't know any jobs.
I check ifconfig -a, inet addr:10.0.2.15

On my client VM, same inet addr.

Sorry, I've been at this for some time now, what am I doing wrong? I've probably set the VMs network config wrong, altho double configs confuse me even more.

Thank you in advance and for your patience.

Put both in intnet. VBoxNAT will not talk to the intnet.

Thank you for your reply.

With a clearer head today, all is done and working.

Now I must set up a relay, so gonna try to do that now.

EDIT:

I managed to get everything up and running.

Hello again,

I have a VM with MikroTik RouterOS installed and I need to export the configuration file from the VM to my computer. I've been searching how to do this, but it isn't clear to me.

Could anyone help? I tried exporting, but apparently there's no way to specify a folder location? Also I've read about doing it via SSH, but, again, doesn't seem possible if you can't specify where the file is exactly?

Thank you in advance.

EDIT:

Okay, apparently I found a program called Winbox (which is also Mikrotik's) and you can basically drag-n-drop the file.

All is well.
