Hi,

I am new to VirtualBox. I am running VirtualBox on Debian SID (Version 
1.6.2_OSE). I installed Windows XP as a guest operating system. Everything 
works fine except the network, which does not work at all.

I have a DSL connection using PPPoE. The output of ifconfig is:

# ifconfig

I am running pdns as a local dns server. /etc/resolv.conf contains:
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1


In Windows XP I see a LAN-Connection: an AMD PCNET Family Ethernet-Adapter, 
which obtains IP address and DNS server automatically. The output of ipconfig 
is (translated from German):

IP-Address: 10.0.2.15
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Standard gateway: 10.0.2.2

When I try to ping e.g. 88.217.44.165 or 82.135.16.28 all packets are lost.

Here are some (hopefully relevant) parts of the VirtualBox log:

(I searched for net and copied the output containing net)

Do you have any tips how to get the network working?

Thanks,
Michael

P.S. I cannot register for the formum because my mailserver uses Graylisting 
and apparently the Forum only sends mails once, instead of trying it again 
after failing to deliver an email.
