Hello Finally could configure the Host Interface Networking and can communicate from/to the host and the other computers in my local network, but guest system is not able to go out to internet nor access my ADSL router that gives the output to internet.
I did this: # brctl addbr br0 # ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 here the host lost connection to internet # brctl addif br0 eth1 # ifconfig br0 192.168.1.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 # route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev br0 # route add default gw 192.168.1.254 dev br0 here the host restablished connection to internet # VBoxAddIF vbox0 alphaomega br0 VirtualBox host networking interface creation utility, version 1.6.4 (C) 2005-2007 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved. The guest (winxp) was configured as 192.168.1.20/255.255.255.0 and using 192.168.1.254 as gateway (the dsl router's ip) After rebooting the guest system there is communication from/to all other hosts in the local network except 192.168.1.254 (the gateway), it does not respond in any way, ping, http (to access the router config), etc. My question is, can I have access to internet while using Host Interface Networking? If I use NAT there is output to internet but no bidirectional connectivity between host and guest, just the guest can access the host, but not host->guest. So, is it possible to have local network connectivity and internet connectivity or just one will work at a same time?
