Hi,
I have just installed VirtualBox 4.2.16 for Windows hosts to my Windows 7 laptop. I created virtual machine and installed Oracle Linux 6.4. Now I want to have this virtual Linux OS on the existing network. My Windows 7 is part of this network. Let's say, my Windows 7 machine's IP address is 10.11.5.46. I want to set 10.11.5.201 to this virtual Linux OS and make it pingable from both way (host - guest). To do this, I used Bridged Adapter. I selected Intel(R) 82567LM Gigabit Network Connection. I believe this is LAN adapter of my actual host machine. Then also I setup network to the virtual Linux OS, such as static IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. Then I rebooted the virtual machine.
Now, any machines on the network, including my Windows 7 host machine, can ping to my virtual Linux OS (10.11.5.201), but from virtual Linux OS can't ping to any mahine on the network, except for default gateway. Also from virtual Linux I can't get to the Internet via FireFox browser. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
