Hello. I installed VirtualBox 2.1.4 from the Debian Lenny virtualbox repository (http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian). I installed Windows XP as guest in it without problems. From inside the guest, I have network access to the outside world without problem. However, services running inside it (ftp, games, whatever) aren't visible from outside (using the host's IP address).
I'm trying to forward port 7777 like this: VBoxManage setextradata "Windows XP" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/Lun#0/Config/ftp2/Protocol" TCP VBoxManage setextradata "Windows XP" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/Lun#0/Config/ftp2/GuestPort" 7777 VBoxManage setextradata "Windows XP" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/Lun#0/Config/ftp2/HostPort" 7777 I restart the VM but it doesn't work. Port 7777 is still closed. "netstat -en" on the host does not list anything listening on port 7777 (or any other port I tried to forward). "VBoxManage getextradata "Windows XP" enumerate" shows that the forward is actually configured: Key: VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/Lun#0/Config/ftp2/Protocol, Value: TCP Key: VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/Lun#0/Config/ftp2/GuestPort, Value: 7777 Key: VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/Lun#0/Config/ftp2/HostPort, Value: 7777 But when actually trying, 7777 is closed. lsmod: vboxnetflt 103212 0 vboxdrv 1697516 2 vboxnetflt I don't know how to resolve this. I've been RTFMing for the last couple of hours with no results. I checked for obvious mistakes like wrong network card, but XP is showing "PCNet" which I configured as -nic1. I'm out of ideas :P _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
