#VirtualBox

I just upgraded my #VirtualBox installation to 7.1.10 (Windows host, Linux guest), and now every time I plug in or unplug a USB device, VBox crashes with an illegal memory access. Anyone else having this issue? It seems over the past years quite some tickets with such issues have been filed, but none with a resolution.

So I tried a few things, namely switching Virtualbox network modes. But I could not see packets between the VMs.

I imagine when traffic is between VMs #Virtualbox is not putting the packets in the TCP/IP stack where #Wireshark on the host can see them when. Only when the traffic crosses to the host or the network beyond does Wireshark (or #tshark) see it.

I don't want to capture traffic on the VMs themselves (having to install Wireshark or something else on Windows 98...).

So I searched around and found the article below in the Virtualbox wiki on network tracing.

You can essentially configure the NIC on each VM to capture all packets and log them to a pcap. So this is what I'll use.
