This seems to explain the problem you are seeing. "The disadvantage of NAT mode is that, much like a private network behind a router, the virtual machine is invisible and unreachable from the outside internet; you cannot run a server this way unless you set up port forwarding (described below)."
See http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html#network_nat If you want to stick with NAT, you should create a VM in the virtual box install that can run your browser. Alternatively, use a bridge adapter. BTW, where is the DHCP daemon that is allocating addresses to your VMs? -----Original Message----- From: Charles Moulliard [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 24 October 2012 10:37 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: CloudStack running in Virtualbox Are you connecting from the host running virtual box to the VM running the management server over SSH or HTTP? > No. 10.0.2.50 = VirtualBox IP address 10.0.2.15 = CloudStack management server 10.0.2.179 = an instance created using the console ( http://localhost:8080/client/).
