It was a struggle to find the right way to install VurtualBox on Mint 17 KDE. It is working now and I was able to get the bridging working. I removed the Nat config. I hope that will not cause me any future problems.

I can ping the VM from outside and can ping the outside from the VM and I can see the default welcome web page from outside.

Thank you everyone for all your help!!

I'm sure I will have many more questions.

Also there is bridged vs NAT networking NAt is like having a personal
router in your vm, Bridged means the mac is exposed to your physical
network and you get an ip normally that you can route to.

Well in most VM hosts you can create multiple virtual networks that
are part of the outside and not part of the outside or even relate
to two physical network interfaces. the how and what you are doing
will depend on what your virtual iron is (vmware, virtualbox,
kvm/qemu, ect) and what exactly you re looking to build.

Hi,

As you might recall I asked about the best way to setup multiple
VM's for LAMP testing.  Thank you everyone who commented!

I just installed Mint 17 KDE on my test server.  I want to
install multiple VM's on top of that.  I'm doing it this way
because this is how I have my workstation and laptop configured. 
Easier to stay consistent.

My question is, on my test box can I create multiple VM's that I
can launch and be able to see the web output outside of the test
box?

Currently I have a LAMP dev server setup locally that I can see
on other computers on my local net by placing the IP and domain in
the hosts file.  The vhost are named like example.local.

I'm hoping I can give each VM it's own IP and be able to see it's
output in the same way.

Is this possible.  Any gotchas I should be aware of?

Thanks!!
