this is my first Post here. Please be gentle :)
I have the following Problem:
I have a Windows Server 2k8 Installation hosted somewhere, and now i wanted to run an VirtualBox Guest on this Server and give it its own public IP. I asked my Server-Provider for an Extra IP which I got. Now this IP is in a totally different Network...
The Host System has this IP Address:
85.x.x.x / 28
and the Guest System should have this IP:
123.x.x.x / 28
Now my Question is:
Can i give this VM the Second IP and let it be publically accessible, and how do I do that?
Assuming you're in control of everything where you host it, say on a machine in your home.
Open oraclebox, go to your vm, right click go to settings -> Network, and set it to NAT. (assuming your IP is in the same subnet of the host)
Add the IP to you DNS server
Start the vm and change the ip.
That should cover your issue.

I have windows server installed in a vmware with domain configured. I had configured a website in iis and kept network adapter as bridged in vmware and is able to access website outside vmware on my local computer.
Problem is when i change my network on local server, we are not able to access website because earlier network range configured was different. For eg : first time it was in 192.168.Xx.XX series after changing network entire ipaddress of local computer got changed to 10.02.XX.XX
Need to know how we can achieve this.
You can assign another VM adapter to Local server and assign him static IP of your subnet or add a second IP to exiting network Adapter. After adding static IP of your subnet to local server, you can assign this IP to you IIS site and can access it from all of your network.
You can also configure NAT/bridge connection again on your server Vmware network adapter as you did earlier (what is the issue?).
If you dont want to assign ip of your local network to server vm, you can also assign second ip address to your host machine network adapter( If clients are not many).
you should also adjust the website's or VM's ip matching your network segment.
so if your network subnet is already 10.x.x.x change your websites ip to 10.x.x.x . or if you dont want to change your website's ip then you should configure routing or NAT
I'm trying to set up a personal cloud server on a Surface Pro, but I'm running into a networking issue that has me completely stumped.
My setup looks like this: I've installed a Nextcloud server on a VMWare virtual machine that's running Ubuntu 16.04, and I have it configured to use NAT so the virtual machine shares a fixed ip address with the host machine. I've forwarded ports 80, 443, etc. on the host machine's NAT device so requests go to the virtual machine. Additionally I've configured my router to have a static ip address, and I've forwarded all the relevant ports to the Surface Pro on my router.
So the trouble is that I can't connect to my server from my browser. HOWEVER, I am able to ping my server, I can SSH in to both the virtual machine and the host machine from the internet, and I am able to access the server in my browser from any computer that's connected to LAN, no problem.
This all sounds like it could be a firewall issue to me (maybe port 80 is blocked on the host machine for some reason??) but the fact that I have no trouble accessing the server from LAN is confusing the issue, and also deactivating the firewall on the host machine doesn't solve the issue.
Any thoughts?
I solved the problem! It turns out the NAT device was improperly configured to use its own DHCP service rather than using the local DHCP service. Basically it was assigning a LAN IP address 169.254.72.176 to the virtual machine, while everything else was configured to expect that the virtual machine's IP address was fixed at 192.168.34.43.
I want to have a SSH connection from my local windows machine or VM on my computer to Azure windows server VM. I tried Cygwin and Putty but both of them gave timeout connection. I used public ip address and opened port 22 on Azure VM.
I will appreciate if some one can give me any hints or links.
There are multiple firewalls that can be the reason here. Fist you must have a rule on the server to allow incoming SSH requests (port 22). Then you need to configure the NSG(Network security group) to allow incoming on port 22. If it still doesn't work, you need to verify that you are allowed to do an outgoing SSH request from your computer.
Thanks for suggestions, I found the problem which was the host machine IP address(ipconfig) (where is a local VM inside domain) was different from the IP address that communicate outside the domain to internet. I was set in NSG of Azure VM to only accept this IP and because of that it gave time-out error. After changing the IP it works.
I configured 2 guest OS (CentOS & Windows10) in virtual box and the base machine running on windows 10. both guest OS are configured with 2 network cards one is on NAT and other one is Bridged. My problem is only one guest machine is taking IP from my org dhcp and other one is not. please suggest. I tried configuring manual IP but, its not pining.
NAT wont take IP address, it will create internal network and communicate via hosts network IP address.
Is it possible to access 127.0.0.1:8080 publicly i have a project application that is running on VM, What should I do?
Diagram:
VMachine( where xampp is installed) IP <-> Global(external) IP (167.1.174.21:8080)
I don't have any option left what should i do i'm really new to this. #respect
Yes, this is possible but there are multiple steps to the configuration and the details for each steps differ depending on the hardware/software used. In general though it can be accomplished like this:
VMware config
Configure the VM with a bridged network
Configure the guest OS to either have a dhcp reservation or static ip.
Router config
Add a dhcp reservation for the VM (if using DHCP)
Add a port forwarding rule pointing to the VM's IP address
XAMPP config
Make sure the XAMPP server is listening on all interfaces.
The key point is to make the Virtual Machine to have bridged connection.
You can do it by looking at this one.
After that do a Port Forwarding to the virtual machine like it a real machine on your LAN.
Step 1 : Apart from above solution, in your local network where xampp is installed, make your local ip as static one, like "192.168.1.125" from router settings->Address reservation option.
Once you reserve address
Step 2 : Open your router->port forwarding->set port & ip to forward.
Step 3 : Now you check your public ip, and bingo now you can go to your public ip from vmware or from any other network.
As long as the vm has a configured network and is therefor able to communicate with your LAN (using Bridged networks in the VM configuration is a good way to go) and the internet, it is possible to make it accessible to the external web/internet.
Therefor you would most likely need to define a port-redirect/port forwarding on your router, that all incoming packets on the external IP (167.1.174.21) on port 8080 gets forwarded to the local ip of your vm and the related xampp session.
A possible problem at that point might be changing IP addresses of the VM based on a possible DHCP configuration. Either use a fixed IP on the VM or configure some mac-based rule for fixed IP or increase the lease time of the dhcp-server (your router to unlimited)
That's the theory, but please think twice before you do so. Running a webserver which is available in the wild is not recommended if you are not used to IT security. And even if you decide to do so, using xampp sounds wrong to me ears. xampp is designed for local development & testing purposes, not for productive use.
