181	Inability to ping from guest	markba		In a guest OS, it is not possible to ping to any external IP address (result of ping is a time out). Strange thing is though that network services like Samba and FTP are available and reachable once you know the IP address. Connecting through that address (Windows or Linux, mount) is indeed possible.\r\n\r\nTried all combinations (host/guest) with no success: \r\n- Ubuntu/Ubuntu\r\n- Ubuntu/Windows XP\r\n- Windows XP/Windows XP\r\n- Windows XP/Ubuntu\r\n\r\nGuests are connected through NAT.\r\n\r\nUtilities like traceroute also don't work. Addresses are resolved through DNS, so the DNS server is reachable, but the pinging it self only shows time outs.	defect	closed	major	other	VirtualBox 1.3.6	wontfix			other	other
