Can you help me out a little more? I've created host-only network. Now I have vboxnet0 interface in Linux and Intel interface in windows. What's the next step? Which IP address do I give to vboxnet0 and which to Intel interface? An External Virutal Network is the next step from that and allows a physical NIC to be attached thus bridging the virtual switch to your physical infrastructure.
I'm a bit unclear as to whether "no rest of the network either" meant Obviously if the machines in the Maybe you could describe what selections you made in the RRAS wizard, as well as produce the output of the following commands from one client and the RRAS server:.

I'm trying to set up a series of VMs as we are transitioning to a thin client setup. I have been supplied a limited number of static ip addresses. The server is located in an offsite building which houses the network we use to connect to the internet, share folders etc. I've set up another external virtual network attached to another physical nic , and a virtual private network attached to no nic.
There is one VM running the same os as the host. This VM is connected to both the external virtual network and uses another static ip say Nic2 and ip This virtual private network is connected to all the other VMs. I'd like to share the internet connection with all the other VMs on the private virtual network, and so I installed the RRAS role on the server connected to Nic2, and selected the option to share the internet over the vpn.
I've run through the RRAS wizard a few times, trying different configurations, but none of them seem to be letting the other vms connect to the 'net. The vms seem to connect to the virtual private network fine, they are assigned an ip address and everything, but no internet, and no rest of the network either. The other problem is in general I connect to the vms with RDP. Will that be possible with a setup like this? If not, what are my other options? Wednesday, February 24, PM.
From your description I think you have over-complicated your network setup. The requirements of your ISP for example. So you have to have routing in place to allow your network traffic to flow. It is strictly a port of the External Virtual Network.
It should be able to talk on both. It is this VM that must route traffic from subnet Networking rules are very straight forward. Hypervisors don't violate or morph or grey the rules in any way. Brian Ehlert hopefully you have found this useful.

I may have mispoke in my earlier post. NIC 1 you are right, does not have an IP assigned to it. I'm thinking that this is Not A Good Thing. Do you happen to know what the specific allowances should be in the windows firewall to allow both it to run on the server, and still allow connectivity to the VMs on the Private Virtual Network? I'm getting the impression I'm missing something. Again, I'm very much new to all this stuff, its been a "learn by doing" experience so far.
Thank you for your help so far! Even from the host. In the host though, if I look at the new NIC that is created after creating the Virtual External Network, it says the network cable is unplugged. Friday, February 26, PM. If your network cable is unplugged - I am assuming that your host has more than one NIC and you ahve bound your Extenal virtual network to a physcial NIC that is not patched into a physical switch.
Yes, that is true, I figured that out after a bit. The external virtual network is not set to share the connection with the host operating system, so it sees it as "unplugged". Is there anything better, it seems to require restarts? Where as I can see that Virtualbox can create adapters without needing restarts. Cannot downvote as I do not have enough reputation but the link doesn't work anymore. Andrew Burns Andrew Burns Running it is easy so it may be something fun to do anyway.
