Discuss: How To Build a Vhosted Linux Development Server on Windows using VirtualBox

I've been doing a fair bit of PHP and Python on Linux recently. My favorite PHP editor, PhpEd is Windows only. However, I prefer to develop LAMP code on LAMP. Here's a solution: Linux on VirtualBox, networked to the host Windows OS

Great tut so far, but I keep getting an error when I try to restart the network.

if-up.d/mountntfs[eth0]: waiting for interface eth1:0 before doing NFS mounts
if-up.d/mountntfs[eth0]: waiting for interface eth1:1 before doing NFS mounts
if-up.d/mountntfs[eth0]: waiting for interface eth1:2 before doing NFS mounts

SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address Failed to bring up eth1:0 SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address Failed to bring up eth1:1 SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address Failed to bring up eth1:2

I'm using VB 3.0.10 with a Ubuntu 8.10 64bit guest OS, running on a WinXP x64 host machine.

Any idea what might be wrong?

Also I followed this setup tut first - http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2009/10/27/build-your-own-dev-server-with-virtualbox/

Thanks,

Derek.

Also I meant to mention that when I follow this error with a

sudo ifconfig

command it doesn't show the updates to the network, just the defaults.

Sorry, forgot to also say that my wireless config tool states my ip address etc on the host machine is as follows:

IP Address: 192.168.1.XX (XX think this changes at times) Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.254

Just in case it helps.

Ok I got as far as the bridged adaptor, then went to modify the iptables files, but I can't find the sysconfig folder. I'm running Ubuntu 8.10, which appears to be different to Fedora. I've been using Windows for the last 15 years or so and have only started with Ubuntu in the last couple of months, so its all new to me.
