I'm new to the group, and I'm new to setting up VirtualBox guest hosts. right now I have a Debian linux box, and I setup Virtual box. I installed FreeBSD on it, but I can't seem to get the networking to work. I tried to rerun sysinstall, but I'm not sure what options to change or why it isn't working. I have the command line terminal window up, but in the virtualbox window, I cannot copy & past to here, so I can't paste the ifconfig info.. it does say inet 0.0.0.0, but it does say UP, BROADCASTING... I looked at the usermanual, but I didn't see anything about actually setting up the network, using DHCP... I hae a home network, with a router, gateway 192.168.10.1, and my desktop is in that subnet 192.168.10.x not sure what to do now... thanks, I grew up with AT&T UNIX SYS V, but it's been a few years:) -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459
