You choosed the wrong device name when setting the extra data.
If you did the configuration accordingly to the documentation
you configured port forwarding for the first network adapter
which is a PCNet card. I assume that you configured the first
network adapter as E1000. In that case, remove the previous
extra data:
VBoxManage setextradata VM_NAME
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/Protocol"
VBoxManage setextradata VM_NAME
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/GuestPort"
VBoxManage setextradata VM_NAME
"VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/HostPort"
and then replace pcnet with e1000 and execute the commands again
(this time with the additional parameters for the Protocol, the guest
port and the host port).
Kind regards,
Frank
