I've noticed that some of the virtual ethernet adapters only work with certain configurations. Im running Windows 7 as host os and almost everything as a guest... Ubuntu, Centos, FreeBSD, DOS 7 etc.
Examples of my problem are that Ubuntu could not get an ip address via dhcp with a gigabit adapter emulated, change adapter to pcinet III and it worked just fine. FreeBSD didnt work with pcinet III and I had to switch to the pcinet II adapter and finally got everything working. How does one test things like this and generate a meaningful problem report so that things can be identified and improved? secondly, and more important to my immediate problem. I need some advice on how to setup networking for a simulation I want to run. I have a centos 5 guest os with two network adapters, 1 is NATed to the outside world, and 2 is intnet I have a couple more guest oses to simulate that will each only have one adapter attached to intnet What I want to do is make the centos vm a dhcp/netbood/NAT server for the other guests. Is the intnet the right way to do this, or do I need something else? _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
