VirtualBox - can't connect from host to guest (no need of internet)
Resolved :) Thanks to: https://serverfault.com/questions/131484/cant-access-virtualbox-host-only-network-from-windows-host
The problem was: adapter address was: 192.168.150.2, but addresses range from DHCP: 192.168.56.101 - 192.168.56.254, so they weren't able to see each other.
After setting adapter address to 192.168.56.99 I can connect to the guest service from host :)

I use VirtualBox
v5.1.2
- host is Windows 10, guest is Linux Debian (6.0.9). I want to very simple thing which actually doesn't work in my VB: I only want to connect from host to guest (where is running database server). At this moment I have mobile internet connection on host via USB modem but I don't need internet in guest at all (either connect to or from guest).I tried to set on VM network setting: Adapter 1 - > Attached to: Host-only adapter.
In Preferences of VirtualBox: Network -> Host-only Networks:
Adapter tab ->IPv4 Address:
192.168.150.2
, IPv4 Network Mask:255.255.255.0
DHCP Server tab -> Server Address :
192.168.56.100
, Server Mask:255.255.255.0
, Lower Address Bound:192.168.56.101
, Upper Address Bound:192.168.56.254
After this setting, the result of guest
ifconfig
is:eth0 (...) inet addr: 192.168.56.101
but I can't connect192.168.56.101
from host: neither ping nor accessing server from host to guest. Ping result in host is:Request timed out
.I was also trying some NAT settings, but also without success.
Firewall is disabled during connection testing.
What am I doing wrong?
