TCP FIN-WAIT-2

Hello,
I'm running an application that connects to a remote IBM iSeries server from a Windows 8 Virtual Machine.
This application works fine when I run it from a Windows PC.
When I run the application from Virtual Box I get FIN-WAIT-2 Tcp Error Message on Iseries box after 10 minutes..
I'm not a TCP-IP/Network expert and I cannot figure out what and where (Iseries or Virtual Box) is wrong.
I've used NAT configuration in Virtual Box.
Thanks
Giovanni

How is the host networked? If the host is on a LAN, you could try using a bridged network connection rather than NAT. This will give the guest the same sort of network connection as the host OS has.

Hello,
the server is not on LAN , but remote with a public IP address.
Thanks
