I missed the "config file" part when I reported the bug. > Maybe it is a good idea to look at the bridge and add the > interface to the bridge if there's only one bridge.

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.
