Virtualbox Vista
VirtualBox, meanwhile, is always just VirtualBox, regardless of what platform it runs on or how many users you have in mind. Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7.
About VirtualBox VirtualBox is a powerful x86 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh and OpenSolaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4 and 2.6), Solaris and OpenSolaris, and OpenBSD.
Actually I am not sure, host networking is useful for me or not. What I want to do is explained here. Any help is appreciated.
1 I have two separate host machines. 2 On each machines I have multiple Ethernet connection. using USB to Ethernet converter 3 Now I want to install guest OS in such a way that it can have only single Ethernet connection to it. So if I install 3 guest os on host machine, they 3 have different Ethernet connection and they should not talk to each other. 4 I am running routing software Quagga on Ubuntu guest os and it should connect to the other guest machines installed on other host machine over the network. So basically, I want to assign separate Ethernet interface to separate guest OS. So can you help me in this?
Which networking type host-only, bridged or NAT I should use? I have to give static ip address to each guest os Ethernet interface.
Mark, Usually I am a bit slow in responding to comments but your comment caught my eye. Yes, you are right to a degree. In the world of open source softwares, there is always this facet of the core developers being so busy that it will appear that no one wants to help you. This is the biggest catch of open source softwares — documentation and support is limited and so the people who trek the road of open source softwares must be ready to bear this ignominy, if it may be called so.
BUT, we can do away with it by sharing knowledge and our experiences through blogs or websites. I had thought of launching opensourceexperiments.com with this thought. — it would be a community where people could share their experiences freely and supplement the mailing lists or forums etc. Anyways, thanks for your comments and Please carry the torch forward by sharing your experiences if you can. Very detailed and very easy to follow.
Virtualbox Vista No Sound
I’m tackling the same situation on my server but are working with an openSuse host and a RedHat, Windows2008, and Windows XP virtual machines do you know of any good post that can take me through accomplishing this? I need the virtual machines to talk to each other and for the host to be able to talk to any of the virtual machines as well as give internet access to both the host and virtual machines. The tricky part is that I need to run all the nics (both the host and virtual machine nics) on static IP addresses I’ve looked but I haven’t been able to find anything that works yet. Can you help me out? Hi all, I’m using VirtualBox 2.1.4, it’s different from the one of this post and maybe I’ll save someone’s time with this.
I have a Ubuntu Server 8.10 in a VM, and a windows XP as host, and I couldn’t find a way to make them see each other in the network. My server has an apache-php-mysql installation, and my objective was to access it from the host machine, for example, open my browser, write and see the apache welcome page. Well After several tries, reading docs, etc with no luck, i tried “brute force” option. I enabled the 4 network adapters from the VirtualBox GUI.
Each with the different card types (PCFast, intel PRO, etc). All four using the “Host interface”. Hi I am beginner and need some help in making inter networking between host and virtual machine.On my machine these software are installed 1. Ubuntu 9.04 (Host) 2. Virtual Box 3.0.8 3. Ubuntu 9.04 (virtual machine) i have assigned the IP to host eth0 using file /etc/networking/interfaces. While on virtual machine eth0 ip assigned by VirtualBox.
I am replacing this IP with same class which assigned host. The problem is that, when i was send a ping command from host to virtual machine or virtual machine to host, then response is unreached host. Any tutorial or web link that helpful for me.thanks for advanced. A crowd who knows about Virtualization (using VirtualBox) and networking.
I have Virtual Machine running Window XP Pro 32bit on a host: Windows 7 Pro 64bit. I need this Virtual Machine to use and publish the actual MAC address of the NIC that’s installed in my host machine. It’s a second card, not used by my host machine. The virtual machine seems to report a made-up MAC. The software I’m trying to run checks the MAC of the NIC for which the software is licensed for. If it’s not the actuall MAC of that NIC, it won’t run.
I tried to setup the vbox by following the sample but could not make it work. Host is vista and guest is Suse. Wireless router. First issue is after bridge and enable the both api, the internet connction lost. I have to use cable connection to get on internet from host side. The other issue is ping from guest side is still “destination host unreachable”.
Host static IP address 192.168.0.101. Gateway 192.168.0.1, DNS is 4.2.2.2.
Gateway and DNS is fixed by wireless router. I do not how to control with IP address of Vbox (Host) on vistal side but it will not be same as IP address on Suse side. I have set up static address on suse side and setup forwarding to Host IP address and default gateway as same as 192.168.0.1.
It might to do the bridge ipaddress? Could any tell what should I do to fix that kind issue. Can anyone tell me how to connect virtual machines in vmware workstation using network.
My query is: On vmware workstation i made two virtual machines of redhat linux and install oracle 11g both on them. Now i want to work on both virtual machines as Server and Client. My question is how i can connect to server from client, there should be a connection to a server with the help of network in between two machines. If anyone having the idea how to do it please let me know with step by step how to configure it. The purpose to do this is: On server there will be a listener.ora file who listens the request from a client with the help of tnsnames.ora. I want know how to make connection in both of this on linux operating system. Please reply me if anyone nows Please let me know on my email address: best regards.
