phpvbox with openvpn
« on: April 07, 2013, 02:06:42 PM »
I am trying to run phpvbox and openvpn-bridge on a box that is configured as server gateway.
I have the network adapter in phpvbox set to eth0 bridged mode as I have a folder for QuickBooks that needs to be available to the network.
If I enable openvpn, I have no network connectivity in the guest running in phpvbox.
If I disable the openvpn service then I do.
Not having openvpn is an inconvenience to to me, but not a deal breaker.
Is there a way to make them play nice together?

If you think you know whats going on, you obviously have no idea whats going on!

When openvpn-bridge is running, the internal interface (usualy eth0) is replaced with a brigde (br0). You have to configure phpvbox to use this already created bridge. I don't use phpvbox, so I cannot help you more on this.

A nice Article on Using phpvbox:

Maybe a page devoted to phpVirtualBox on the Contribs Wiki would be nice.
