I am using LinuxMint17 (Host) and running another LinuxMint17 as Guest using Virtual Box.
My Guest LinuxMint is able to ping Host LinuxMint but vice-versa is not happening.
Network Setting in VirtualBox Network Adapter 1 - Host-Only Network (This i did so that Guest IP is aligned with Host) Network Adapter 2- NAT (To get my internet work on guest)
