Under advanced tab, enable promiscuous mode - its currently denied see if that works, under the interface tab or system tab make sure you check shared resources like cdrom, network, storage etc.

Thanks for the promiscuous mode. &nbsp;I searched that term in their help file...<br />
<br />
Note<br />
Bridging to a wireless interface is done differently from bridging to a wired interface, because most wireless adapters do not support promiscuous mode. All traffic has to use the MAC address of the host's wireless adapter, and therefore VirtualBox needs to replace the source MAC address in the Ethernet header of an outgoing packet to make sure the reply will be sent to the host interface. When VirtualBox sees an incoming packet with a destination IP address that belongs to one of the virtual machine adapters it replaces the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header with the VM adapter's MAC address and passes it on. VirtualBox examines ARP and DHCP packets in order to learn the IP addresses of virtual machines.<br />
<br />
I plugged in an ethernet cable and I was able to ping via IP address. &nbsp;So how do I access the guest via RDP? &nbsp;Also, I need to expand the storage. &nbsp; Where do I go to increase the storage?<br />

sorry, I will check this out early next week.

I think this has to do with some firewall policy on one or both guest and host machines.

I setup my first guest machine through Windows OpenBox. &nbsp;It's setup with NAT by default. &nbsp;However, a simple ping to the host machine does not respond. &nbsp;I want the host to share a folder and have the guest access it. &nbsp;I also want remote desktop functioning on the guest machine.

VirtualBox can't ping host

Virtual Box

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
