running 2 virtual machines in virtualbox


hi,
I cant get my linux server ( centos5 ) with virtualbox run 2 virtual machines in headless mode. Only one machine gets network connection. Can anyone tell me how to make 2 or more virtual machines work with 1 eth-port in headless mode using virtualbox ??

Did you set up the virtual ethernet interface for each machine? ie.
Code:
VBoxManage modifyvm VMNAME -nic1 bridged -nicspeed1 102400 --bridgeadapter1 br0
(this command is assuming your using bridged networking, if not modify to suit your needs....)
