Greetings, I am new to this list and VirtualBox.
I have a setup with these. --cpu amd64 3 cores, 8Gbytes RAM, single ethernet Interface --Host OS; Feroda20 (linux-3.11.something), VirtualBox-4.3.8 --Guest (for virtualBox) Fedora19 I am attempting to enable bidge-networking. The host sees the adapter as p5p1 -by using the ifconfig command. When I start the VM and do ifconfig I see a device called p2p1 ( not p5p1 as with the host ) and with a different mac-address from the host. There is no ipv4 address but an ipv6 multicast address begining with fe80::. If I set an ipv4 ipaddress manually (by ifconfig p2p1 someIPv4adress up ); I ( unexpectedly ) cannot ping between the host and the VM. I do not know if I need to have an ipv4-enabled-dhcp server on the host before I start the VM ( or whatever ) to get bridge-based (ipv4) networking organised on fedora20 host and fedora19 guest in VirtualBox. Advice would be appreciated sincerely LuxIneg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
