SUN VIRTUAL BOX NETWORK CONECTION ISSUE

Hai frnds,
i have installed redhat linux in sun virtual box server and my host machine is windows where i have installed ssh clit.my aim is to access the redhat linux in sun virtual box from my ssh client installed in my windows.
when i installed sun virtual box it generated a ip of its own.hence i set the ipaddress of redhat linux existing in sun virtual box same to ip of sun virtual box.iam able to ping the server after logging in linux but iam unable to ping the redhat linux in sun virtual box from my host windows machine.After few seconds the connection gets terminated.
i have set the ip address for my windows machine and provided the ip of linux as the gateway for windows host.i also have a ethernet card .
when i give ipconfig in cmd it displays the ipadress of the linux(linux ip and sun virtual host ip are bsame) but there is no ip set for the windows host.it displays the message as media disconected .
ip of linux(sun virtual box):-192.168.0.1
mask:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.0.254
ip of windows set:192.168.0.2
mask:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.0.1
so please provide me any way to access the linux guest from my ssh client in windows.
I should be able to ping the guest linux from my host
help me to implement this
Thanks and Regards

Sun Virtual Box & Toshiba Satellite L10 - product recovery settings problem

Hi-
I had a problem a while back with my Satellite L10 and was unable to get full recovery settings after installing Sun Virtual Box and ignoring Microsoft warnings.
I suspect this has now cloned my disk. Something is very very wrong. I am using Win 7 beta in the interim but would like my XP back.
My notes to Sun Microsystems are here:
[http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=15106 ]
Has anyone had the same experience or what does Toshiba recommend?
Thanks,
Tim

Hi -
Thanks very much for the advice.
It's really strange as the system runs through Win 98 options on booting the product recovery dvd but then gets you to a full & perfect toshiba L10 XP.
I reinstalled XP and went through the process you mentioned above (F8 etc) after installing - at least my safe boot mode options etc. are there.
My guess is that either the disk itself picked up on the cloning or something outside the HDD has been cloned or produced an 'image' of the previous HDD.
If I want to get a new product recovery dvd (as a next step in my investigation) can I download from the net or do I have to order from Toshiba (is this a good course of action?...).
My system can only burn cd's, but I could get someone else to burn a dvd for me if this is possible.
Thanks....

Uninstalling Sun Virtual Box and Windows 7 from Macbook Pro?

Hi everyone!
Can anyone tell me how to properly UN-install Sun's Virtual Box and Windows 7 Beta from my Macbook Pro so I can reinstall Windows 7 Beta thru Boot Camp?
I recently installed Sun's Virtual Box and Windows 7 Beta on my Macbook Pro. It works fine, but there are some things about Virtual Box I am not happy with. I'm told that uninstalling both Windows 7 and Virtual Box and reinstalling Windows 7 through Boot Camp will be better for what I want and Windows 7 will run much better that way.

Thank you - I really appreciate your response. I did delete the .dmg so I guess I will have to re-download it from Sun and then uninstall it as you suggested.
Maybe you can answer another quick question? I am hearing both YES and NO in regards to being able to install the Windows 7 Beta using Boot Camp. Any problems that you might be aware of?
If you visit our BootCamp forum you will find many users running Win7http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1244
While Win7 is not supported, for many users, that's not important.
When I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit on this MBP, it was not supported and I installed it under Tiger and a beta of BootCamp! It still works. Experimenting is fun and a great learning experience.
Just be sure you have a viable backup - SuperDuper!, CCC or TM before installing BootCamp and Win7 and you always have a path for a recovery should anything go wrong.
Enjoy!

[Solved] Virtual Box and wicd issue ?

Hey guys,
I have been using arch for like about a year now. I have slowing converting my family members across by install on their machines. But I have experience a new problem the other day. My brother has two computers a laptop that I have put arch & kdemod 4 in January. His also has a desktop with a windows which has just craped itself, so I said time to arch it !.
He needs xp for some programs (that don't like wine) so i have install virtualbox on his laptop no problems. But after successfully installing arch & kdemod 4 on the desktop I have tried 3 times to install virtualbox. The Problem I have is after installing the binaries as per wiki wicd stops working completly.
wicd cannot get ip address, when I trying connect via wireless error message is "bad password"

Virtual Box Lovefilm instant Issues.

Hi guys,
Got a problem with lovefilm instant. I have win xp sp3 running in virtualbox. Guest additions (without direct3d) and Wine D3D are installed I also have full video memory and just over 500MB of base memory installed with 2d and 3d acceleration on. The problem is lovefilm instant starts to load a movie but a popup appears saying title unavailable and im unable to watch it.
The weird thing is Netflix player works and only the film "RED" works on lovefilm instant :S Ive tried loads of titles new and old HD and SD but nothing else plays.
Just wondering if anyone has got instant to work or if there is a fix of some sort.

ACS-SE on a virtual box

Folks, greetings.
We have a customer that needs to install a patch on his ACS-SE, but since this is a very big and productive environment, he is very concerned in doing so without testing on a lab in advance.
As we don't have an appliance to run the tests, I was wondering if we could install an ACS-SE image onto a virtual machine (VMWare, Sun Virtual Box or MS Virtual PC).
Does anybody out there has any experience in trying this kind of lab?
Thanks in advance,
AL

BTW, the patch was not designed to run on ACS For Windows. That's why this is not a solution.
Thanks,

Network Limited Conectivity & Virtual-Box

Just bought a new Dell Inspiron 3137 laptop, with 64-bit Windows 8.0 installed (not 8.1). I have four legacy 16-bit programs (Bible study, Sermon editor/reference, 2 games) that I need to use as cannot find more recent versions on the market. So initially
tried to use MS Virtual-PC but it would not install, so then installed Virtual-Box followed by Win-Xp. The W8 OS now (after serious setup efforts) connects ok under Wi-Fi and Ethernet to the internet and to computers on my home network. But Virtual-Box
and Xp fails! looking at my "Networks" W8 pop-up window I see an entry of "Unidentified Network" and that it has limited connectivity. Xp indicates "connected" but received packet count is 0.
Think this is a result of my attempts & connections under Virtual-Box. I go to Network and Sharing Center and find first 2 category are enabled but "All Networks" entry is disabled/off and I cannot find any way to enable! I go to
"Network Connections page and I see 6 entries (Bluetooth, Netgear router, broadband, Virtual-Box, etc). I run the troubleshooter on the Virtual-Box link and am informed that it cannot fix & no useful help provided to me by system! No progress
w/ comparability mode on legacy programs.
I have initially informed Dell Technical support then most recently Oracle of this problem >>> both say it is not their product malfunctioning and that errors are in configuration of Windows-8 >> but no help.
This is serious irritation as have already wasted about 40 hours chasing/messing with this problem >>>> NEED HELP AND SUGGESTIONS - PLEASE!
Thanks .....

Thanks Kevin for the reply, but no progress here. I am completely new to Windows 8.0 and slightly new to any networking, so keep that in mind should you decide to reply again, A.K.A., I might need a bit of step-by-step assistance .....
The symptoms here : My new Dell computer finally now connects by wi-fi to home network, has always connected to internet. I am using Virtual-Box v4.12.18 w/ Xp Pro, SP-3. Under Xp in Network I note that it shows "Connected" but received packet
count is 0, sent packet count is hundreds. Looking within W8 at advanced settings, I see 3 network types, 1) Private = enabled, 2) Guest = enabled, 3) All = NOT enabled (and I can find no click, link or setting that
will enable). Have tried with Network Discovery on & off, and with File Sharing on & off, and with 56-bit & 128-bit encryption selected alternatively. So run the Troubleshooter = first pass informed
it could not fix problem : later, troubleshooter stated it fix some problem(s) with incoming connections = at that point I looked and found that under W8 both sent & received packet count was into low thousand but Xp still showed 0 receive.
When I look at Networks under W8 I see "Netgear52" W/ no errors, then see either "Unidentified Network (limited connectivity) OR randomly see "VirtualBox (Limited Connectivity) and so think Netgear52 is what I should be using.
Again under W8 networking pages, I try "Setup Network - Chose Wireless Router" am asked for SSID (whatever?) but showing nothing after 10-minutes. Have made all efforts both with & without Firewall on Xp & I think on W8 also, no changes
to Security Essentials Xp is in NAT mode and have not yet tried "Bridged."
"ipconfig?"
Base system here are : Dell 3137 Inspiron laptop, Win 8.0 + Win-Xp Pro. Motorola Surfboard cable modem. Netgear52 router. Various home networked Eithernet connected computers. Various Tablet & eBook readers connected Wi-Fi. No other component is
reporting any errors and all work Ok. Xp is Ok except zero connectivity to Internet and home network. Need to get Xp connected so can access data for legacy programs off home & church networks.
So your help seriously appreciated! Bill

VDI 3.0 with Patch2 - Virtual Box 2.0.10 - Host Networking

Hi Guys,
I have got following setup at a customer site:
Solaris 10 U7 : Sun VDI 3 Server
NIC0 - 192.168.100.xx network - sun vdi3.0 All-in-one configuration is installed here
NIC1 - 192.168.34.xx network - windows xp template is bound to this NIC (bridged)
NIC2 - 10.10.11.xx network - windows 7 template is bound to this NIC (bridged)
When I boot those template on VBox manually - I do get correct ip from correct NIC.
I have checked the .xml config files for xp and template which does point to NIC1 & NIC2 respectively.
However, when I upload them to VDI and start cloning..the clones come out on 192.168.100.xx network.
Logically - they should have come out on the same network as their respective templates - which is not happening.
I know this feature is there with VDI 3.1 EA - however, this is a production system so cannot really use it !!
Is it even possible with VDI 3.0 to have different pools on different network? Virtual Box 2.0.10 limitation?
Regards,
Hardik

Hi Hardik,
Wai is correct, VDI 3.0 allows you to specify a single NIC for each VirtualBox host in a Desktop Provider, navigate to:
Desktop Providers -> YourVBoxDesktopProvider -> Host -> Host Details (Click VirtualBox host hyperlink)
This page provides a drop-down with each plumbed NIC on this particular host. By default the first NIC is selected. Navigate to each VirtualBox host in your Desktop Provider and ensure you have selected the correct NIC and click [Save].
Now enable Host Networking in your Pool -> Settings.
All desktops registered/started from this point forward will use the specified NICs. Any Desktops already registered/running on a VirtualBox host will need to be either Shutdown or Powered-Off via the VDI UI and restarted.
Can you confirm that you have followed these steps? I have a similar setup working with various NICs for Host Networking.
If these steps still don't work, what does 'ifconfig -a' executed on your VirtulaBox host show? When you launch the VirtualBox UI and navigate to the networking section of a virtual machines settings, what Host Interfaces are listed there?

After Installing Oracle Virtual Box and changing the network adapter to bridged mode cant access my server

Hi ,
I have installed Oracle Virtual box on windows server 2008 r2 hosted on 1und1.de.
Till installtion and setting up untun on virtualbox it was fine, but once i changed the adapater to bridged mode. I immediatly lost connectivity with my server and now cant access.
It is now 2 days i cant access my server and neither ping it, also the website hosted on it is also down.
The 1und1 has following 2 options
1) using putty i can connect to server command prompt using administrator but cant run any gui application
2) Server Rescue mode: where i get special environment to start, stop services, access registry and command prompt.
Till now i have tried lot of setting to enable network connectivity but not able to success

How can i restore my connection.

Hi,
According to the result of "ipconfig /all", the physical adapter dosen't appear.
Please check if the physical network adapter works properly. We can verify this in Device Manager.
To open Device Manager by using the Windows interface
Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
Click Hardware and Sound.
Click Device Manager.
If the network adapter is working properly, please make sure that the Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4) has been checked in the properties of the physical network adapter.
If issue persists, please try to uninstall the Oracle Virtual box.
Best Regards.

Sun ZFS Virtual Box Appliance - Performance question

Hope this is the right place to ask this question - apologies if it is not.
We are testing out the Sun ZFS storage using the handy Virtual Box Virtual Appliance.
Now I know this is a VM appliance and as such, we're not going to see anything like real life performance on this thing - but I was wondering if there were any tips someone might share with regards to getting the best performance possible?
We are using the VB appliance to test a lab based OVM setup - and up to now, performance is too dire to even install a simple VM Guest or upload an ISO to a repository.
The host specification is 24GB RAM and 8 cores - all of which we have presented to the ZFS appliance - however doesn't seem to make any difference .
Is performance of the VB appliance throttled?
We have got OK performance out of the HP P4000 VSA (again not great - but OK for lab testing).
Cheers,
Jeff

Jeff,
You are correct - the simulator is for testing a subset of functionality only. I am unaware if the VM will use more than one processor, but the RAM will help. One item I can also comment on based on experience is that iSCSI offers the best performance for demos. I use iSCSI as opposed to cifs / nfs / ftp etc. Looking at DTrace, I get much better performance - but I am running a system with only 2 disks, so even that might top out on your server. Perhaps a remote demo with the Oracle Solution Center?

Can't install oracle 10g on windows XP(Virtual Box)

Hi all,
I have installed windows XP in Virtual Box, trying to install Oracle 10g in it. It won't start the installation..no clue about it. I installed winrar(as the 10g setup was in rar format, had to extract it).
without any issues winrar got installed, where as Oracle 10g simply wont get installed...no error message is thrown..
in fact I have installed 10g on a XP PC just last week..not sure where what I am missing
i am using "Briged Adapter" Network
If anybody has experienced same issue, kindly let me know....
mohib

Hi Srini,
Thanks for helping me with the link to be frank I had looked into it long back...
yes the software worked just yesterday, I had installed on XP(different machine).
I added my PC to domain, logged in as Administrator & double clicked, same....no response.
At last I used "command prompt" and it worked!! not sure how or why...but worked.
Now my database is created successfully
Yes would like to know why this happened....and how things worked via command prompt & not by double click....would greatly appreciate if anybody helps me on this.

Do you use Virtual Box VM... Please help with this.

hey everyone I'm extremely new with all this stuff...
I have a iMac 10.5.4 with the most current version of Virtual Box.
When i load Virtual Box everything is rocking and extremely cool... but after an hour or so my network/server connections dies off on the mac side.
when i go to GO >> Connect to Server >>
smb://ipaddress
I get this pop up...
error connecting to the server >>
I click OK and i get an error code -36
the only way for me to connect again to the server is to shut down everything and restart the iMac it works just fine and i load VB back up and than everything works for about another hour or so and than i have to restart everything again.
any clues to my issue?
thanks for helping a newbie!
cp

...but since you are learning, and would like to know where was the bug, I tried your code and updated it.
The only two small problems I found:
1. You have a while loop that checks if there are more tokens.. it's not needed and this while loop will only run because by the second run, you would have consumed all the tokens in the for loop, check would fail and while loop will be exited. [I have removed this while loop in my version below]
2. Now, here is the bug:your for loop has a condition that evaluates (i < st.countTokens()).
Now count tokens will only return "remaining" tokens. Assuming test string "this is a test", countTokens return 4. Then as you consume the first token, it is 3, then 2 then 1. All this while for loop's i is going 1,2...
i = 0, countTokens = 4
i = 1, countTokens = 3
i = 2, countTokens = 2, check fails, and for loop is exited.
So all you have in your array is first two tokens. Rest of the array is null as it was when you created the array.
So then when you loop back and check index 3,2,1,0.. 3 and 2 elements are still nill, that's why you get the result you are getting.
Here is the fixed code:
String sentence = "this is second test"; //String variable to hold user input
String output = ""; //String variable to enable display of output
String buffer = "";//String variable to hold output
st = new StringTokenizer(sentence);
int tokenCount = st.countTokens();
//Array to hold tokens
String tokenHolder[] = new String[tokenCount];
//Walk through the tokens
for (int i = 0; i < tokenCount; i++)
tokenHolder[i] = st.nextToken();
String reversedTokens[] = new String[tokenCount];
//Walk through the array in reverse
for (int j = tokenCount-1; j >= 0; j--)
//Add the reversed token to the ouptut string
output += tokenHolder[j] + " ";
System.out.println(output);
}

The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".

The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".
My internet is fine: all other apps that do not rely on the Game Center work, as does my browser and other online functions; additionally, a friend's iPhone connects to his Game Center perfectly while he is sitting next to me.
Closing the Game Center app and then reopening it is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then logging back in, and then reopening the Game Center is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then reopening the Game Center app and logging back in from there is ineffective.
This issue has gone on for more than a month, and so the phone has gone through all variations of "turn it off then back on again, refresh the system, etc etc" that are the basic first suggestions for trouble shooting.
One game app, which required a Game Center profile to launch, stopped working entirely, and would return a message saying something like "connect to the Game Center". I eventually deleted it to free up space. Other games which can be linked to the Game Center to connect with friends simply fail to link, returning "Game Center unavailable". This is the aspect that is currently bothering me the most: I cannot play games with friends unless the app can also link to Facebook and connect to friends from there.
When I open the Game Center, I see the following screen. The bubbles float gently, and it seems as if I had the ability to update my "status". However doing so results in a message that has vanished once the app is reopened.
Upon tapping Games, either the bubble from the main screen or the option on the ribbon at the bottom, the following screen appears. Clicking on Challenges shows a message that achievements must be viewed to issue a challenge. Clicking achievements results in a message that games must be connected (and from my friend's phone I know I have several apps that should appear).
Upon tapping friends, it does show me a list of suggested friends pulled from Facebook, but attempting to send a friend request results in the following screen. After accepting the error box, the "send" button for the request is grayed out and unavailable regardless of adding or deleting friends and/or an accompanying message.
In short, the Game Center is completely unresponsive for no discernible reason, and this problem began with no warning and is now long term. Though my iPhone is older (a 4s), my friend's is even older (a regular 4) and works fine.

I am having the very same problem on my iPad running ios 7. All is fine on my iPhone it opens no problem - this is running on ios 8. I wish they would fix it.
