Well I feel stupid now, after checking everything in the engine VM itself per your suggestion, I checked /etc/hosts on the host itself. I could have sworn I added in an entry, but sure enough, missing entry for the engine... I cleaned up the old "External" engine VM from setup, added the entry into /etc/hosts, and everything seems to be working fine now.
Thanks for the help!
