My setup/config:

Host-system: Running Win 7 (64-bit Enterprise edition) absolutely latest 
patches

Virtualbox: 64-bit rel 4.3.10 build 93012
  Network config: Host-only network, NIC: Paravirtualized Host-only adapter

Guest-system: CentOS 6.4 (64-bit) stripped-down minimalistic server package 
(we use it extensively on physical hardware without issues)

Within my guestOS, I see only "lo" (loopback) and "virbr0" (for the libvirt 
based host-only network). "virbr0" has the host-only gateway-less subnet 
"192.168.122.0/24".

Problem statement:

My reading of the documentation for host-only networking is that IP 
communication between multiple guest VMs on the same host, is possible, and 
also IP communication between host and guest VM's is possible. However, even 
with ssh-daemon running/configured, using putty(ssh-client on Windows) to try 
to login to guestVM on 192.168.122.100 (what was assigned to guest by DHCP), 
doesn't seem to work.

Of course, I can create a 2nd interface (eth0) as NAT/bridged, but I wanted 
to double-check if my assumption about capabilities of host-only network are 
incorrect, about host <--> guestVM comm?

thanks,
BD
