Virtual Network for a Virtual Server

Scarthos · 03-27-2009, 08:00 PM

I'm trying to familiarize myself more with server OS's for school. I've installed Windows Server 2003 and 2008 (Might do SBS 2003 too) and Ubuntu 8.10 Server on my XP SP2 machine using VirtualBox 2.1.0. My problem lies when I go to configure the network for the server(s). In order to properly configure them, they must be attached to a network. However, I don't want to have the OS make any drastic changes to my network. SO...I'm curious if there is a way to add my Virtual Server(s) to a Virtual Network.

Also, anybody know a great step-by-step setup guide for Ubuntu 8.10 Server?

Thanks

When all else fails...read the manual.

Glad you were able to figure this one out on your own.

Cheers!
