Can't configure host-only network interface! about openflow-tutorial HOT 9 OPEN

For anyone facing the same issue, make sure you've enabled the DHCP server option on the target network adapter in VirtualBox settings. To do so, follow File > Host Network Manager, select the target network adapter, mark the DHCP server checkbox on the right.
(If that doesn't work, go to your VM settings, by right-clicking on it, then open Network settings, select the target network adapter, open advanced settings, and check "cable connected option")

did you modify the /etc/network/interfaces ?

Thanks for your response. I followed "VirtualBox: Setting up a Host-Only Network"
I added host-only interface in the settings, and confirmed it's active with ifconfig -a, then I got stuck at: sudo dhclient eth1

from openflow-tutorial.

in here you can simply added with

$sudo -s
$vi /etc/network/host
added same property as in the list..
:wq!

run the command $ifconfig -a

1 more time and you good to go.

I've got exactly the same issue.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Hi sfsmm - I used VMware instead, and never got this issue again.

Hello ahmedalagha.

I tried with VMware and indeed it seems it works but now I have a problem. I can't get the vm to capture the mouse. I tried installing another guest machine and it captures the mouse perfectly. It seems to be a problem with this vm in specific. Did you also have this issue?

Hey there, i'm only answering that for other user that have that problem.
So, I solved this goin on File > Host Network Manager > Create a new exclusive host network > select the box DHCP server "Enable"
hope it helps
