Greetings fellow virtualization persons !


I've installed VIrtualbox onto my Host pc ( a Linux 4.2.0-27-generic ). And into that Virtualbox i've installed a Ubuntu 14.0.4 TLS server
and a Windows 7 Operating system. Now after installing the linux server ive tried to enter the IP address of the Ubuntu into the browser of the windows 7 pc and i just couldnt get to the point that it shows me that the webpage of the Linux server IP works, i've even started the Apache2 but still no connecting to it.

Any solutions?:)

* both systems are on adapter NAT.

Read the networking chapter of the manual and decide which network mode you want to use (except NAT).
Guests on NAT cannot talk to each other.

See chapter 6 in your VBox manual for the proper adapter type to be able to access guest to guest and host to guest.

Suggest bridged or host-only, but NAT-networking might work.
