Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers How to ping from Windows to Solaris 10 and vice versa? Post 302667223 by roman015 on Thursday 5th of July 2012 10:57:27 PM

I once tried to make a network of 4 Ubuntu machines and I couldn't get them to ping each other "as is". I had to set up VirtualBox to actually create a dhcp server for the devices, after which they could ping each other (And their ip addresses changed as well too) and Then I could do whatever networking I wanted between the devices.

Google for "vboxmanage to create network". You should be able to find links which suggest a command like this one:
Code:
VBoxManage dhcpserver add --netname intnet --ip 192.168.59.1 \     --netmask 255.255.255.0 --lowerip 192.168.59.2 --upperip 192.168.59.255

Hope this helps...

NOS-TUN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						NOS-TUN(8)

NAME
nos-tun -- implement ``nos'' or ``ka9q'' style IP over IP tunnel SYNOPSIS
nos-tun -t tunnel -s source -d destination -p protocol_number [source] target DESCRIPTION
The nos-tun utility is used to establish an nos style tunnel, (also known as ka9q or IP-IP tunnel) using a tun(4) kernel interface. Tunnel is the name of the tunnel device /dev/tun0 for example. Source and destination are the addresses used on the tunnel device. If you configure the tunnel against a cisco router, use a netmask of ``255.255.255.252'' on the cisco. This is because the tunnel is a point-to-point interface in the FreeBSD end, a concept cisco does not really implement. Protocol number sets tunnel mode. Original KA9Q NOS uses 94 but many people use 4 on the worldwide backbone of ampr.org. Target is the address of the remote tunnel device, this must match the source address set on the remote end. EXAMPLES
This end, a FreeBSD box on address 192.168.59.34: nos-tun -t /dev/tun0 -s 192.168.61.1 -d 192.168.61.2 192.168.56.45 Remote cisco on address 192.168.56.45: interface tunnel 0 ip address 192.168.61.2 255.255.255.252 tunnel mode nos tunnel destination 192.168.59.34 tunnel source 192.168.56.45 AUTHORS
Nickolay N. Dudorov <nnd@itfs.nsk.su> wrote the program, Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@FreeBSD.org> wrote the man-page. Isao SEKI <iseki@gongon.com> added a new flag, IP protocol number. BUGS
We do not allow for setting our source address for multihomed machines. BSD
