Have you checked the configuration on the host? >From the information you have supplied so far, the configuration of the OpenBSD client seems to be correct. > Your suggested commands show that it is running and listening on all > interfaces for IPv4 and IPv6. OK, so it seems that: * PF is currently disabled, so this is not the source of the problem. * SSHd is running and listening on all interfaces. * Your ifconfig output looks correct. * Your routing table looks correct. * The OpenBSD vm is using 192.168.69.22 * The host is using 192.168.69.1 * You are able to ping the host from within the OpenBSD vm * You are able to ping other hosts on the internet from within the OpenBSD vm * Therefore ICMP traffic is correctly being routed out of and back to the OpenBSD vm. * You are assigning the IP address to the OpenBSD via DHCP, (rather than setting a fixed address.) If this is all correct, I would now check: * Is TCP traffic being routed out of and back to the OpenBSD vm: openbsd# ftp -o -https://www.openbsd.org/ * Can you connect to an arbitrary high port that is listening on the OpenBSD vm from the host: openbsd# nc -l 192.168.69.22 2000 host$ telnet 192.168.69.22 2000 As PF is currently disabled, you should be able to connect to port 2000 without any additional configuration.
