I am still baffled by this. I am now running kernel 3.5.3, and tried adding in a bunch of networking options like bridging, vlan, and tun/ tap support to no avail. How can I find out why virtualbox isn't bringing up the interface properly for a host-only network? Any random shots in the dark I can check? -- Casey Allen Shobe [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
