networking problem in virtual machine
Hi, I am running scientific linux guest on ubuntu host.
The problem is that the guest machine doesn't have any ip except from the loopback.
I want that the guest OS will be in the same local network of the host and not part of internal network that virtualbox create.
In other words I want other computers in the same local network of the host to be able to connect the guest OS as if anther computer was added to the network.
How can I do that?
I tried bridge but for some reason it doesn't work for me.

DESCRIPTION
xen-create-nfs is a simple script which allows you to easily create
a single configuration file for a Xen guest which will mount its remote
filesystem over an NFS root.
It doesn't create any images to use for local storage, and it doesn't
support more than the minimal number of options to completement the
existing xen-create-image script, however it is hopefully useful.
