I rely on the Qemu system to setup the IP address from the 10.x.x.x block but that seems only to be accessible from inside the VM: qemu-system-i386 \ -enable-kvm \ -smp cpus=2 \ -m 2G \ -device intel-hda \ -device hda-duplex \ -net nic,model=e1000 \ -net user,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 \ -hda ${HOME}/Qemu/buster/buster.qcow2 The '-ner user' line sets up port forwarding to the 2222 port on the host machine from port 22 on the VM. Then to SSH into the guest when I need to I have the following set in ~/.ssh/config: Host buster HostName localhost Port 2222 user "user" IdentityFile /home/"user"/.ssh/id_buster Then a simple 'ssh buster' allows me to SSH from the host the VM is running on. Hopefully this can help you get started so you can make it accessible from hosts on your LAN if that is what you're looking to do. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
