Subject: Re: CentOS Networking with V Box
netstat -plant

liastening on ports 25 and 22 both for IPv4 nad IPv6

Result from the nmap(windows version)
Starting Nmap 6.47 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-02-03 22:36 US Mountain
Standard Time

NSE: Loaded 118 scripts for scanning.

NSE: Script Pre-scanning.

NSE: Script Post-scanning.

Read data files from: C:\Program Files (x86)\Nmap

Nmap done: 0 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 4.20 seconds

           Raw packets sent: 0 (0B) | Rcvd: 0 (0B)


Failed to resolve "devserver".

WARNING: No targets were specified, so 0 hosts scanned.

I would ahave asusmed the the above results as the dhcp server is not
generating a IPv4 address


so...

1) The netstat does not show the binding to port 21... this means SSHD
did not start.

I am guessing port 22 is OK

2) netstat shows SSHD, but the firewall is not allowing it. Open the
firewall

Firewall is already disabled

3) netstat shows SSHD, the firewall is open, but you still don't see the
port open via nmap.

    3a) if you see other ports open, I would look at the Windows firewall


Windows firewall allowed it on a Public network (startbuck), so why not
allow it at my home

    3b) If you don't see any ports open, you have two options here.


       3b1) Make sure your NIC (from the Windows side) is in promiscuous
mode.


dont know how to do that.

       3b2) If it is already in promiscuous mode, then this may not work in
this configuration.  In this case, try adding a private network on a second
NIC, and communicate with the VM over that.
Ill try to connect to my ethernet adpater and see if that is it, maybe its
my wireless adapter....
