Interesting you mention this because the NAT interfaces are the same IP on both boxes. 10.0.2.15 = eth0 on Debian 0 and Debian 1
eth1 = 192.168.1.21 (Debian 1) eth1 = 192.168.1.20 (Debian 0) Debian 0's /etc/network/interface file # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo eth0 eth1 iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface #allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.1.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 Debian 1 /etc/network/interface file # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.
