Hello
I'm using
Ubuntu 22.4 LTS
Virtual box 7.0

In Vbox Network is set to Adapter 1 PCnet-Fast III (Bridged Adapter, enp4s0)

On my Linux machibe it looks like this
horleif@neptunus:~/Downloads$ netstat -nr
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 enp4s0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 enp4s0
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 enp4s0

Is it possible to config this in OpenVMS
$ sh sys
OpenVMS V9.2-2 on node VENUS 21-MAR-2024 02:49:07.51 Uptime 0 00:54:54

TCPIP-I-INFO, TCP/IP Services startup beginning at 21-MAR-2024 02:50:10.28
%TCPIP-I-NORMAL, timezone information verified

Interface - NOT configured. (DHCP-Client Auto-configuration mode)
%RUN-F-CREPRC, process creation failed
-SYSTEM-F-DUPLNAM, duplicate name

Thanks,

First look at the guides to configuring a VMS gust VM for X86 VMS, and set up a bridged interface.

When done, look at the guides to setting up TCP/IP on VMS. You will need to run TCPIP$CONFIG to set this up - all covered in the docs

Quoting from the VSI OpenVMS x86-64 V9.2-2 Installation Guide, chapter 2.3. Creating a VirtualBox Virtual Machine, section Network:

From the Adapter type dropdown, select Intel PRO/1000 MT Server.

Its solved. The problem was is it's not possible to change adapter type while the VM is running. After i shut it down it was possible to changer adapter type.

Thank you for your help
