Subject: [9fans] Networking in VirtualBox (DNS problem?)
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2013 15:39:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAHk2O6o9Ap22jf5Qeb84WBuC3Oi0cZJj0MTS=w+RZj0KexNJcw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi all,
The newest version of VirtualBox (4.2.16) works with Plan9 (at last!)
but I can't figure out how to set up networking (I had no trouble
setting it up with qemu before.) For reference, I'm using VirtualBox
(the version described) in a MacBook. I have tried bridget and NAT for
all adapters, and the only instance I got something working was
NAT,
Intel PRO MT/1000 Desktop
on bootup the card was detected, ip/ipconfig didn't complain with this
setting (it complained with most bridged setups with Airport.) cat
/net/dnb gave me 127.0.0.1 as my IP (hmmm) but Google's DNS servers,
which sounds okay. ndb/dns -r didn't complain either, but ip/ping
google.com did: cs problem, dns problem. I thought it was just that
the network didn't work, but ip/ping 212.106.221.227 (that's
google.com) or ip/ping 88.221.15.26 (that's reddit.com) did work
without any problems. So my best guess is that dns (or cs) are the
culprits. dnsquery does nothing (complains about anything I get to
ask) and the same goes for dnsdebug ("crapped" error messages for all
queries.)
Any setup hint?
Ruben
