Hi!

I would like to set up a web server for our institute. This web server is a
virtual machine (Centos 5.4) running on our internal server (Centos 5.4). This
virtual machine is supposed to be placed in the DMZ and so it has a different
subnet from the internal server. If it were a real machine, enabling proxy-arp
in our switch would make the virtual machine accessible in the DMZ and outside
network. However, the VM is inaccessible even in the internal subnet.

I am under the impression that this is possible with virtualbox's bridged
ethernet interface because virtualbox's "network manager" places the real
interface into promiscuous mode and packets sent and received by and for the
guests use the guests' MAC and IP address. Is my impression wrong? If not, what
I am doing wrong? Is there a better approach to my problem?
