VirtualBox default IP address for NAT

By -
Gosh.. I always forget this details >.< So better to create it on one post. This details will have to put manually if NAT is not working in your VirtualBox network.

IP address: 10.0.2.15
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 10.0.2.2
DNS server: 10.0.2.3

How to change your IP address details on Windows
  • Go to start, control panel, double click on network connection (Windows XP) or Go to start, type network, click on network and sharing centre, click manage network connections on left menu (Windows Vista)
  • Right click on your nat network card then click on properties
  • Choose internet protocol / internet protocol version 4 from the middle box, and then click properties.
  • Click on use the following IP address and then change to the details I put above. See picture for more details


How to change your IP address on Linux
  • Go to terminal, type ifconfig eth0 up. (eth0 is you nat network card)
  • type ifconfig eth0 inet 10.0.2.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 and press enter
  • also you have to change file in /etc/resolv.conf. Type vi /etc/resolv.conf to open the file.
  • press 'i' to go to insert mode, change the nameserver to 10.0.2.3, press esc, then press ':wq' and then enter (all without single quote sign)
That's it. Hope I won't forget the next time I have to deal with this problem.

Hiren Boot CD is a superb all in one tools, that helps from regular user to the IT tech guys alot.

The result: it won't be able to loads it's driver. So one way to solve the computer with SATA optical drive is by using Hiren in USB instead. In this post, I'll show you step by step on how I did it (credit goes to hiren.info for the information). Connect a USB Drive (256Mb or more). Right click the USB drive in Windows Explorer, and choose format (this step will destroy all the data inside the USB stick, so make sure you already have backup the data you need). You can tick quick format if you are sure the USB stick is still in a good condition, or just untick it if you afraid you have badsector...

Add this line at the end of the file: zend_extension = "C:\xampp\php\ext\php_opcache.dll" You will need to adjust the path if you installed XAMPP in non default location. Restart Apache server.
