agreed. This would easily become very fragile.

This is what I did even before reporting the bug.

Ok. I missed the "config file" part when I reported the bug.

Ummm... I'd say that the current situation where the default networking
is to set up the virtual machine like a PC behind a DSL router with
NAT, is too simplistic in almost all cases. But you have a point in
that there are many ways to configure something else, and that it would
be too complex and error prone to reconfigure the system automatically.


Kind regards,
