Multiple Public IPs with VirtualBox

tedmp0816 · 01-04-2011, 05:59 PM

I recently purchased a block of 5 IPs from Comcast. I have a computer running Arch Linux connected to the Comcast gateway they gave me. On my connected computer I have 2 Windows XP virtual machines running. Now I was wondering how can I make each of those virtual machines have a different public IP, because currently the only thing I can get working is have the computer and both virtual machines sharing the same public IP. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I think you set to bridged and add in ip's to the real nic to match the 5 or add in 5 nic cards with bridged to vm with those.

By the way I am using VirtualBox as my vm software. Ok, so I tried bridged networking on another computer and that definitely worked, now I just need to figure out how to fix this error on the computer I am trying to get this to work on:

Failed to open/create the internal network HostInterfaceNetworking-eth0 (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND).
