in such a configuration i prefer to use two virtual machines. one vm has host-only networking to serve hidden service content. second vm hosts Tor router with hidden service pointed at vm host. host uses iptables redirect and/or tcp proxy to connect hidden service connections from Tor VM to hidden service VM port at host-only endpoint. (there are variations on this theme...) best regards,
