Accessing Oracle on VirtualBox from Host Virtual Machine

DevArJul 18 2013 — edited Jul 19 2013

Hello,

I have a Host system of windows 8, installed the Virtual Box Latest edition.

The guest OS is the oracle Linux that came with the Pre-Built Developer VMs from Oracle.

The VM is set to HOST ONLY network setting.

Now, the thing is that i want to access the Oracle in the guest machine from my windows host machine.

the guest OS shows the IP address as 192.168.56.101. I can ping the IP address from the HOST machine, but cannot connect the

SQL developer to the oracle in the guest OS from the host machine. It keeps on saying the Network adapter cannot connect.

PLEASE I need help, now please do not say that install the oracle in window itself. I actually want to do the same on my macbook pro as that is my primary machine.
