Hi, I am new to the Linux environment. I am trying to build a virtual Freebsd
server to run another virtual device (a Juniper router). I have found that
after building the base operating system that I cannot remotely access the
virtual Freebsd server. I have tried using both Qemu and VMware with the same
result. It looks to me as though the server has a default setting that allows
it to contact other devices (e.g., I can ping, ftp, telnet, etc., other devices
from my Freebsd server) but I cannot ping, ftp, telnet into the Freebsd server
from my host PC. My host is a Windows 7 desktop, but I have tried pinging from
another virtual device and cannot get a response from the Freebsd server. I do
not believe that the issue is my Windows 7 PC.
I have tried the newest Disk 1 ISO image of Freebsd, 8.2, but I've also tried a
few other images with the same result.
I have combed through the documentation, tried configuring the firewall using
the "open" template, tried to disable the packet filter in rc.conf
(pf_enable="NO"), to no avail. I cannot reach the Freebsd server no matter
what I have tried, and I feel I have exhausted my options. The ports are open
and responsive on the virtual server itself, but access seems to be blocked to
the Freebsd server.
I am hoping you can tell me how to change the default settings on the Freebsd
server to allow access from my Windows 7 host PC. Hopefully it does not
involve manually rebuilding the kernel!
Thanks for your help!
