[20:29] <quercus> Hello all. If it's not looked upon badly, I'd like to ask a technical question about the Warrior web frontend.
[20:30] <quercus> Is is possible to forward the web admin on :8001 in such a way that I can point a browser at the box *running* the Warrior, not the Warrior itself once I've ssh'ed in?
[20:31] * Smiley tries to figure out what your asking
[20:31] * ivan` has trouble too
[20:31] <Smiley> quercus: can you ask in another way?
[20:32] <Smiley> you - < box > < Vbox >
[20:32] <Smiley> atm it forwards 8001 from Vbox to box
[20:32] <Smiley> are you doing bridged networking or something? (if so, yes, as I do exactly that).
[20:32] <ivan`> I think he wants virtualbox to listen on 0.0.0.0
[20:33] <ivan`> I don't know how to do that, but you can always use an SSH port forward
[20:33] <quercus> So, rather than having to fire up a terminal and ssh into the box with the `ssh -L8001:localhost:8001` command, can i just point my browser at http://nameofmyserver:8001?
[20:33] <ivan`> or that thing you said
[20:33] <Smiley> hmmm yes
[20:33] <Smiley> except my brain is hurting and I can't think how
[20:33] <Smiley> quercus: we talking an internal network or public?
[20:34] <quercus> technically both, as it's the dmz for my local network.
[20:34] <quercus> but even local would be a start
[20:34] <Smiley> heh
[20:34] <ivan`> tell virtualbox to use bridged networking on the warrior, this will give it a real IP
[20:34] <Smiley> well if you put VirtualBox into bridged mode, and give it a real IP
[20:34] * Smiley hi5's ivan`
[20:34] <quercus> i should probably have pointed out first that i'm running virtualbox headless on ubuntu server
[20:34] <Smiley> then the port forwarding will forward to teh real IP :)
[20:34] <Smiley> quercus: ok, I run it headless too
[20:35] <Smiley> I have it in bridged mode, dhcp and grabs an IP (i've set it static but we can ignore that)
[20:35] <Smiley> I got to http://ip.defined.by.dhcp:8001
[20:35] <Smiley> and it works
[20:36] <quercus> sweet. i don't mind whether it's at http://homeserver:8001 or the warrior has its own 10.0.1.* address as if it was a real machine
[20:37] <Smiley> quercus: do teh section option
[20:37] <Smiley> can you do dhcp? thats the quickest/easiest way
[20:37] <quercus> my router is my dhcp server
[20:38] <Smiley> can yo uhave it hand out static IP's?
[20:38] <quercus> yeah. i have my server and desktop issued ip's determined by mac address
[20:38] <Smiley> do teh same with the warrior and happyness reigns :)
[20:39] <quercus> how would i implement that from the command line, bearing in mind i have no gui virtualbox
[20:48] <Smiley> god your making this hard ;)
[20:48] <Smiley> ok let me have a look
[20:49] <quercus> i'm "working within limitations" apparently. :P
[20:49] <Smiley> VBoxManage controlvm Archiveteam-Warrior-2 nic 1 bridged
[20:49] <Smiley> I think.
[20:51] <quercus> invalid nic number :\
[21:06] <Smiley> 0 ?
[21:08] <quercus> tried 1 and 0
[21:14] <Smiley> hmmmm
[21:14] <Smiley> try nic1
[21:14] <Smiley> no space
[21:14] <quercus> VBoxManage: error: Missing argument to 'bridged'
[21:17] <Smiley> VBoxManage controlvm Archiveteam-Warrior-2 nic1
[21:17] <Smiley> what does that say?
[21:18] <quercus> VBoxManage: error: Missing argument to 'nic1'
[21:22] <Smiley> gah
[21:23] <quercus> yeah
[21:23] <quercus> the --help is no use either
[21:23] <Smiley> VBoxManage modifyvm “MyVM” –nic1 bridged –nictype1 82540OEM –bridgeadapter1 eth0
[21:23] <Smiley> ah tehre we go
[21:23] <Smiley> try -nic1
[21:25] <Smiley> quercus:
[21:25] <Smiley> VBoxManage controlvm archiveteam-warrior-2 nick1 bridged bridgeadapter1 eth0
[21:28] <quercus> well, it didn't spit an error, so that's something
[21:40] <Smiley> :D
[21:40] <Smiley> check your router, see if you saw something request an IP.
[21:40] <Smiley> errr not "nick1" nic1 ;D
[21:44] <quercus> oh yeah, i did that. i'm just trying to find the new ip
