Cannot connect to the ip provided by the OWASP BWA - virtualbox

I have installed owasp bwa in virtual box. And when I run the vm I got an IP address to connect to.But, when I'm trying to access it using http://ip-address, it failed to connect. And I'm not able to ping it from my host network.

Go to VM Network settings and and change it to Bridge Adapter.

VMWare - How do i configure Host Only Network with a custom Gateway?

I'll make this quick.
I have created a virtual network by setting several VMs to use HostOnly VMnet1 as their network adapter.
I then added a pfsense virtual machine firewall into that same network and configured it to allow traffic to the internet but block to/from my real home network.
That way - my virtual network can connect to the internet even though it is in host only mode.
The thing is, I need to manually set the DNS and Gateway of each machine in VMNet1 to the VM firewall to allow them to communicate since all communications must flow through it.
I was trying to figure out if I can do this automatically. When I go into Virtual Network settings in VMWare Workstation 16, the only options I can set are the subnet and available IP Scope. There is no option for default gateway or DNS here. Can this be done?
Do you have the ability to run a DHCP server on the PFSense firewall which is connected to the VMNetwork? If so, either Windows and Linux VMs that have their NICs set to DHCP, would get the IP, DNS and GW from the DHCP.

How can I connect to a remote server?

I'm trying to deploy a flask app to a ubuntu server. When I'm in local network of place A, if I want to connect to ubuntu server of this place, I just simply type ssh username#192.168.1.IP
But when I'm in another network of place B. How can I connect to ubuntu server of place A? I can't connect to it by ssh username#192.168.1.IP command anymore.
You need to use the public ip of the other network and you need to configure port forwarding on the router

pfsense: Can't access web console when using virtualbox

I've installed pfsense 2.3 x64 in virtualbox with 2 adapters; One is bridged to my wifi adapter (adsl modem) (WAN) and the other one set as'Internal network' ('intnet') (Lan);
The problem is that although pfsense can automatically detect dhcp over first adapter and get an IP but my system (the host) can not ping the pfsense server (pfsense can ping both adsl modem gateway and the host).
Note1: Disabling the antivirus and firewall (kaspersky internet security 2016) has no effect.
Note2: I know that this setup works because I use the exact same network configurations for a Kerio Control server (v9.0.2, installed in virtualbox)
Note3: If I constantly ping pfsense server in my host (ping 192.168.1.102 -t) and at the same time restart pfsense server, during the booting phase of pfsense I can get two pings!
After contacting the pfsense official forum, it turned out that the WAN interface blocks everything by default. Therefore, either a rule should be defined to allow WAN to accept traffic or access server from LAN side.
I figured this out without having to go through the WAN interface, answer is on the pfsense forum
Configure host-only network "vboxnet1" (or any of the other host-only networks if you're already using vboxnet1 for other VMs) with the following:
192.168.1.77 (or whatever IP you want your host to appear as on the network)
255.255.255.0
DHCP Disabled
The make sure that the LAN adapter on your pfSense VM is a "Host-only Adapter" and that it's using "vboxnet1" (or whatever network you configured above)
Reboot/re-install and http://192.168.1.1 should work now

Can't manage to connect my virtual machine to the internet

I have a windows server 2003 as the guest in VMware player and windows 7 enterprise as the host. I'm trying to connect to the inernet from my guest and i can't. In my VMware player virtual machine settings my network addapter is set to NAT but i can't get it to work.My host is in the work LAn and connected to the internet through it. Could this have something to do with it not working properly? Do I have to perform some special setup?
The problem may be caused by:
You're NATting to the wrong host's network interface in the VM's option.
Your VM's NIC DNS configuration is wrong. To verify this issue, try to PING the host's NIC from the VM.

How to enable connection to virtualbox machine from outside the Host (i.e. from any PC connected to Internet)

I have a Host with VirtualBox installed and Guest installed (both with Windows XP SP3).
I do have connection between them. And also the guest have an internet connection.
I can connect via Remote Desktop Connection from Host to Guest, but I also want to be able to connect to Guest from any other PC. If can, how to achieve this?
Guest is using 2 network adapters, one NAT for sharing the internet connection and then one Host-only to be able for both machines to see each other on the local network.
Assuming you have an Internet router providing access to your ISP...
Change the VM networking from NAT to Bridged.
Check that the guest still has Internet connectivity after rebooting or ipconfig /renew.
Configure the router to give the guest a fixed IP address. (Typically, the guest can still use DHCP but the router is configured to give the guest the same IP address every time.)
Determine which ports and protocols needed to connect with the guest. E.G, TCP on port 3389 (RPD) for Remote Desktop.
Configure the router's "port-forwarding" feature to route external connections to the IP address of your guest. You can designate a different port for the external connections but that might not get through firewalls between the remote computer and its ISP.
Determine the external IP address of your Internet router.
Connect from the remote computer to the IP address and designated port.
