VBoxManage setextradata "VM name here" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/ssh/Protocol" TCP VBoxManage setextradata "VM name here" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/ssh/GuestPort" 22 VBoxManage setextradata "VM name here" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/ssh/HostPort" 2222 > - interface networking: is most promising > - internalnetworking: is not usable cause it is for inter vm > communication. > > the solution must work without changing the network configuration of > the guest os (solaris). this would be too time consuming. > > Is a possible way having an offline network configuration with a > static ip and starting locally a dhcp server in that net and then > start virtualbox? > > Any ideas or clear solutions are welcome. > Thanks. > Uwe > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > vbox-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users > _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
