It maybe easier to manage virtualbox using vagrant ( http://www.vagrantup.com/ ).
I am going to assume eth0 from your ifconfig output is a dhcp/dynamic IP address thats going to change every time you halt/start your virtualbox instance. Virtualbox is far outside the scope of C* so I'd recommend checking out the manual on Virtualbox networking http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html plus using a dynamic IP for c* will probably yield undesirable results.
