Sep 1, 2013 at 15:47 comment added msw @geoderek I'm sorry, your question and that article have exceeded my knowledge of Windows networking. It does appear that you'd only need a bridged interface and if I was trying to hack this together, I'd probably grab the IP off the guest machine and add it to %sysdir%/etc/hosts but even if that works, its a kludge.
Sep 1, 2013 at 14:04 comment added geo derek I set up the static eth1 interface because I was following the instructions at blog.xoundboy.com/?p=586. In these instructions the author is explaining how to make a VM accessible by the windows host even when laptop is “offline”. When I drop the static config, as you suggest, I get just the DHCP issued IP, and this IP does work in a browser on the host machine. This is great but I am now at a loss then how to assign a static IP.
