Is there an easy or defined way to do that (e.g. easily activating NAT’ting in the VR appliance)? Or would I rather have to build something on my own with iptables etc?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cheers,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Christian<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>-----------------------------------------------<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>Christian Hüning, </span><span style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>BSc.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>Fakultät Technik und Informatik, Department Informatik<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>Berliner Tor 7<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>20099 Hamburg<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>Tel.: +49 40 / 42875 - 8436 <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>Mobil: +49 40 / 180 55 44 5<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='mso-fareast-language:DE'>Web: <a href="http://www.mars-group.org"><span style='color:#0563C1'>http://www.mars-group.org</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
