From the config file you provided it looks like you try are setting the
TCP stack to using int 0x09.
int 0x09 is the hardware interrupt of your NIC, it is meaningful only
for the packet driver. What WatTCP / Watt-32 / mtcp needs to use is the
software interrupt that calls the packet driver - usually 0x60.
It is curious that the application tries to perform a DNS resolution
when you try to connect to an IP, though. Have you tested some Watt-32
based applications to compare the result?
Note about bridge mode: I loosely recall that VBox has (or had) troubles
with bridged mode when bridged over a wifi interface on the host. Is
that your case?

*Subject:* Re: [Freedos-user] Bridged virtualbox adapter
I haven't been usind DNS for now - just IP addresses
On the machine that is working, I have set up Trumpet TCP and
can ping out to the network, or in from the network
On the other (using the same ova file on new hardware) I can
ping 127.0.0.1, but any other destination returns "cannot
resolve hosts hardware address"
On both machines, when freeDos starts, I see:
Packet Driver is at segment 03EE
Interrupt number 0x9 (9)
I/O port 0xD000 (53248)
My ethernet address is <a mac address>
That last line suggests that the MAC local MAC address is known....
Running wireshark on the virtualbox host machine shows no
evidence that traffic is leaving the VM at all

Can you ping the name and the IP address from both places?
Does nslookup for both machine and full DNS address return
the same IP address?
