Hi folks,

New to this list and to VirtaulBox. I've been trying to setup bridging
this afternoon and have had no luck. Here is what i've done.

On my local machine (ubuntu) i've done the following:

apt-get install bridge-utils uml-utilities

sudo chmod 0666 /dev/net/tun
sudo chmod 0666 /dev/vboxdrv

sudo tunctl -t tap0 -u

/etc/vbox/interfaces
tap0 jeremiah br0

added self to vboxusers group.

sudo VBoxAddIF vbox0 <user> br0

# load the tun module
modprobe tun

# Create a tap device with permission for the user running vbox
tunctl -t tap0 -u {user}
chmod 666 /dev/net/tun

# Bring up ethX and tapX in promiscuous mode
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 promisc
ifconfig tap0 0.0.0.0 promisc

# Create a new bridge and add the interfaces to the bridge.
brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 tap0

# Give the bridge a dhcp address.
dhclient br0

On the vm machine running ubuntu I only show the 'lo' interface and am
unable to bring up tap0.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
JJ
