That's strange, because it should work. Unless firewall rules on the
guest and/or host are blocking pings. It doesn't  matter anyway, since
you seem to have gotten things resolved.

You're welcome. Glad I could help.

Just to make sure I understand your question, let me put it the way I
understand it. You used ssh port forwarding to forward port 1080 from
the guest to port 1080 on the host. You want to use this forwarded
port as a proxy for http connections for example. If I understood that
correctly, then all you need to do is to setup your browser to use
http://localhost:1080 as an http proxy. HTH.
