The former is NOT correct (never assign an IP address to a network device connected to a bridge, just to the bridge itself). The latter looks correct, and (assuming DHCP works on eth0) should give you the same connectivity as before. This all assumes that eth0 is not a wireless card (which is impossible to tell these days as network devices can be arbitrarily renamed). 99% of the wireless card drivers are broken and don't work with the bridge in the linux kernel (or any other bridge). -- Dr. Klaus Espenlaub innotek GmbH, http://www.innotek.de _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
