Is it possible to create different Linux OS in Virtual Box and set different IP address and ping one host through the other?
I configured 2 Linux running on Virtual box with different IP address but when I ping the other one i get no answer.
Yes it's possible, what i can recommend you is to connect the virtual machines in bridge mode so each machine has a ip and is shared with your host machine
Yes is very possible.
There is several ways to achive this. One is use "Bridged Networkin".
You can see more hereVirtual Box - Network configuration
It should work as #Arthur85 said, set the vms into bridge mode. If it does not work, then check whether they are in the same subnet. If it does not work even in the same subnet, check the iptable rules.

I've a mac address which belongs to VMware virtual machine in my network(about 4k devices).
The virtual machine is used by VMware workstation on some host in my network.
All i got is a mac address of the virtual machine.
Is there any way to find it(by DOS/bash or similiar) without installing PowerCLI on each device or using arp table details(not allways the virtual machines appears there)?
thanks!
I very much doubt that this is possible since identifying host information from a guest could be a security concern. However, what you could do if using ”Workstation PRO” is to call the rest api from within the guest - if that sort of traffic is allowed.
I have 2 PC (with Windows as default OS), let's say PC_master and PC_slave. Since it is recommended to work with Linux to manage a spark Cluster i created one Virtual Machines with Linux on each of theses PC: VM_master on PC_master and VM_slave on PC_slave.
I would like to setup a Standalone Spark Cluster, so which Networking configuration should i use (NAT, Bridge, HostOnly?) for theses 2VM in order that they own their private IP adress letting me ssh from one to another without the need of port forwarding ?
Edit: My two laptop are linked to the same box, so they have private IP and supposed to be linked to the same router.
Finally it seems that if i want to give each VM its own Ip adress to create a private Network i have to choose Bridge Network which will assign a unique Ip for each VM!
In ESXi I see vSwitch and In each vSwitch I have the provision to add port-groups. Do each port-group I add is on a separate network ?
Say I configure 2 port-groups and run DHCP server on one of them. Can I isolate the DHCP broadcast to only those machines on that port-group ? Or does the DHCP broadcast reach all port-groups on the vSwitch ?
I setup 2 Linux VMs with 2 NICs each. Each of the NIC-1 is associated to PortGroupA and NIC-2 is associated to PortGroupB. And I ran a DHCP server (dnsmasq) on one of the LinuxVM on eth0 (NIC-1,PortGroupA).
I noticed that when I bring up eth1 (NIC-2, PortGroup2) on the second Linux VM it gets an IP from the DHCP running on PortGroupA.
Is this expected or is my environment messed up ?
I'm no expert but I see two ways this could work:
Use different port groups and define different VLAN-IDs for each of them. VLAN-IDs enable you e.g. to split a switch in half to create two separate networks.
Use different vSwitches that are only connected to each other through a single VM (e.g. software firewall) that provides routing between the two networks. Block DHCP traffic.
Option 2 worked fine for me using free ESXi and provides most flexibility but there might be an easier solution using ESXi features only.
I have a Linux virtualbox that I use for development. The stuff I'd like to share to the host operating system resides in /var/www. I tried setting up a samba share, but I can't seem to see my virtualbox on the network. Does anyone know how I'd go about doing this? I searched, but the only thing I've found is virtualbox's shared folders which isn't quite what I'm looking for.
By default VirtualBox networking defaults to an internal NAT implementation, which only allows the guest to access the network and not the other way around.
To access the guest from the host you have to use a different networking mode.
My preferred solution is host-only networking, because the guest appears as a proper networked-machine on the host, without being exposed to the public network.
Bridged networking would also do, but you'd have to secure the guest as if it was a separate machine and there may be networks where having two MAC addresses for a single physical PC is not advised or even allowed.
Why aren't shared folders what you are looking for, anyway?
Is their a way to access a web server such as windows server 2003 installed on a virtual box such as vmware from the host machine?
If VMware is set to use bridged networking, then each guest OS effectively has its own IP address, like brien said, you just point your browser to that address.
If you configure your virtual machine to use bridged networking, instead of NAT, it will have its own IP address "beside" the host machine, instead of a local IP address "behind" it. Then you can connect to the virtual machine, using that IP number.
(Disclaimer: I've used VMware workstation for several years, but not their server products.)
Yes, you should just be able to point to the IP address of the VM.
How is your VM networking configured?
I am doing this all over the place, just make sure that the vm has an ip configured.
i believe vmware (workstation?) also has built in a virtual network client (VNC) that you can connect to - enable it by going to the configuration properties of the vm, and in the last tab there is a checkbox for it.
IP address should do it.
I faced the same issue. You have to set your networkconnection to "bridged mode" in your VM. Then you have to find out the IP of your Webserver.
Sometimes Webservers have a redirect to a specific URL. In this case you can edit your host-file in C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts and add your IP with the redirected URL like this:
192.168.0.37 some.url-you.need
Then your Host can go to the Webserver. Even participants of your Ethernet can access the Webserver.
