Dear Team,

Someone should kindly educate me, I install Oracle 12c on Centos 6.6, on Oracle VirtualBox. On windows 8.1 Host Computer.
All my Installation is working fine, my Challenge is that, if my guest computer is without activities for 10-15 mins, the network will be disconnected, I will not be able to ping from the host to the guest nor the guest to the host, but I can do everything within the guest, I can even connect to internet, but until I shut down the guest a
and re-start I will not be able to connect again. eth0 is Nat while eth1 is VirtualBox Host Only Network.

What must I do to have a persistent network communication between the host and the guest???????

Which address fails? The NAt'ed one on eth0? The host only address on eth1? Or both? Are you using static addresses, or DHCP?

Read does not mean we can answer.
Wait, if someone can (and want to) answer s/he will do it, there is no need to demand for a reply, this is a cooperative and free forum.
Also note this is week-end and then less people come.

Well, as you didn't answer the questions that I asked, I thought that you were no longer interested.
