Which gives the error message "ERROR: 192.168.0.10: unable to connect" To be clear 192.168.0.10 is the internal IP address of the Ubuntu machine. Under the advanced section I have Adapter Type: PCnet-PCI II (Am79C970A), Promiscuous Mode: DenyĤ.) Next from the command line in ubuntu terminal I run > VBoxManage startvm "Windows XP 32 Bit" -type headless

I have then chosen Bridged Adapter with Name as eth1 (my wired Ubuntu connection). So, this is what I have done so far (I have the Extension Pack Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack 4.1.12r77245 installed):ġ.) Under Settings for my Windows XP 32 bit Home Edition SP3 VM I have ticked Display->Remote Display->Enable ServerĢ.) I have then chosen Server Port 5012 and Authentication Method as Null and timeout as 5000 (Allow multiple connections is greyed out but will not need this at the moment.)ģ.) Under the Network tab I have ticked Enable Network Adapter. But, after looking at numerous tutorials I cannot get it to work! I have been using Virtualbox 4.1.12r77245 on my Ubuntu 12.04 machine for over a month now with no problems until yesterday! I came across the idea of being able to use a remote desktop client on Ubuntu to connect to my Virtual Machine (VM).
