Hehehe, I will include all information before and after making the bridge
and host interface, it may be large but I guess it is necesary... Note
that eth0 is wired and eth1 wireless, VirtualBox works exactly the same
way in both cases...
CONFIGURATION BEFORE HOST INTERFACE
-----------------------------------
Note that it is currently working, am writting you this message over the
eth1 wireless connection.

CONFIGURATION AFTER HOST INTERFACE
----------------------------------
Here will lose connection and will be back in a minute after the process.
# modprobe tun

# brctl addbr br0
# ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0
# brctl addif br0 eth1
# ifconfig br0 192.168.1.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 1500

at this moment br0 does not appear in the routing table

loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default gateway.2wire.n 0.0.0.0 UG 1 0 0 eth0
so I will do it by hand (same way as my wifi script but applied now to br0)
# route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev br0
# route add default gw 192.168.1.254 dev br0
at this point my internet connection is restablished in host and now it
appears br0 in the routing table

>>> running VirtualBox <<<
Attached to: Host Interface
[x] Cable connected
Interface Name: vbox0
now the box is being started, I will change the TCP/IP configuration from
Automatic to manual and will assign
Guest WinXP:
IP 192.168.1.13 (one after br0/eth1)
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.254 (the router's IP / default gateway for eth#)
DNS... the same ones I always use
then will restart the guest WinXP to ensure the network configuration is
updated...
now will test connectivity...
- ping works in both ways host<->guest except guest->192.168.1.254
- windows shares work in both ways host(samba)<->guest(winxp)
- there's no connection to internet since 192.168.1.254 is inaccesible
Routing table might be okay since I'm currently writting to you from the
host system =-)
Did you see something anormal in the configuration?
Thanks very much!!!
