I have installed Ubuntu Linux VM in my Windows XP box.

I am able to open http://google.com on Windows XP but when I login to, Ubuntu linux.. and launch this site: I am getting an error: Server not found.

The network settings I have on LinuxUbuntu VM is :

  • Adapter1 : attached to Bridge adapter.

I tried NAT as well. But nothing seems to work.

I am not in China. I provide google.com as mere example. We have a test website which cannot be launched inside Linux Ubuntu.


I deleted etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. But this does not help.

The output of ifconfig -a and lspci within Ubuntu is below

I experienced the same problem in the same configuration. The solution was deleting /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, Linux configures it on the next boot.

For further investigation, please supply ifconfig -a and lspci from Ubuntu and ipconfig from the host.
