Virtualbox and networking

[Jan Johansson]

Hello!

I'm running server 11.10 and have an issue with networking for the guests.
I have installed WinSrv2008R2 on my host running headless.

The guest sees a Network adapter, but it has no "real" connection to my network. I have  used the configs listed below. What might I be missing?

I've got extensive experience with vmware, but this is my first virtualbox trial.

VBoxManage modifyvm "krockos" --nictype1 82545EM
VBoxManage modifyvm "krockos" --nic1 bridged
VBoxManage modifyvm "krockos" --bridgeadapter1 eth0
