And there is another possible cause: by default, virtualbox networking uses nat. The virtual machine sees both a local interface with a private IP, and a "router". The host, however, sees none, making it impossible to connect _to_ the virtual machine, or to open a listening socket in the "router"'s IP. -- Luis Zarrabeitia (aka Kyrie) Fac. de Matemática y Computación, UH. http://profesores.matcom.uh.cu/~kyrie -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
