[Gloucs] Virtualbox and USB

[matt robbins]

Hi Matt.

Thanks for the reply buddy, basically following your advice I had a play around with the vm's and reconfigured them from scratch.

When I run one vm at a time it uses 127.0.0.1 for its ip address and also sets my host ip address as virtual loopback too.

I scanned my host using the ubuntu vm and found that port 631 was open so I ftp'd into it, everything seems fairly straight forward like browsing directories etc and modifying them but how do I find the logs on my host machine using ftp as I just mentioned?

Regards,

Matt R
