VirtualBox Bridge Network on Headless Server Help

Posted: 19. Aug 2016, 19:12
by brad1615
I'm having issues with setting up my network for virtual box and I'm not really sure what I am doing wrong at this point. I have read through forms for countless hours and I'm throwing in the towel!

So basically I am running ubuntu 16.04 with virtual box 5.1.4r110228.

Below is a list of outputs that I'm hoping may help diagnose the problem.
I have no clue what I'm missing.
