Setting up VirtualBox VM Networking on Linux 2026/01/23 11:57 Karma: 0  
NOTE: These steps are for VMs running Windoze XP. Should be even simpler on Linux guests!

1. In the VirtualBox control panel select the VM you want to work with and select settings (only available when VM is NOT running).

2. Select Network on the left and the Adapter 0 tab on the right.


3. If not already selected change the 'Adapter Type' to be PCnet-FAST III.


4. Change the 'Attached to' from NAT to Host Interface.


5. Click the 'Generate' button next to MAC address.


6. In the 'Interface Name' field enter tap0


7. Click OK and start the VM.


8. Open 'Control Panel' and then 'Network Connections'


9. You should see a 'Local Area Connection' entry with limited or no
connectivity. Right click it and select 'Properties'


10. Open the 'Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)' dialog by double clicking.


11. Select 'Use the following IP address' and enter a free IP address on your network, the netmask 255.255.255.0, your gateway address and the address(es) of your DNS servers. Click ok.


12. Run the 'Network Setup Wizard' by clicking the link in the left hand pane. You can accept the defaults for everything unless you want to change the computer name, workgroup or share folders from it.


13. Restart the VM. That should be it! The VM should now act as a normal computer on your LAN.
