Hello RAC GURUS!!!

I am having a problem that only you can solve. I am running windows 10. and using VirtualBox 6.0.4


I have the wireless bridge adapter set up. 2 Adapters are enabled >> Allow Promiscuous Mode >> Cable Connected. I have the Linux FW disabled, as well as my windows firewall and have NO antivirus programs installed. I did enable the NAT as a 3rd wireless adapter to cheat to connect to the hostnames to download the yum installer, but I have disabled it and cannot ping to my private networks Below are images of my specs and description of my problem.


I have searched all over google and plenty of forums. I can ping out to any website using the ip, but I cannot ping to any hostnames like google etc. Also when I try to do the yum command: yum -y install oracle-rdbms*

I receive the error:



public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/UEKR3/latest/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 6 - "Couldn't resolve host 'public-yum.oracle'"

Trying other mirror.

Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: public_ol6_UEKR3_latest. Please verify its path and try again



If it was an ip it would work, but for some reason I cannot connect to any hostname using the ip. Why is this? Is their a plugin I need to download to connect my bridge network for my dns to work?


In the image attached you can see that my future rac servers can talk to each other publicly but cannot ping any hostnames or priv ips


/foru/forum/fa/14060/0/



Any help will be greatly appreciated. I'm so close I can feel it!!!

PS. I have not even got around to installing the Oracle software on my nodes yet bc I am having trouble with the networking, I have only done the yum preqs.

We don't like to delete threads so I have merged the two threads.
We can cope with a little redundancy.

I always use host-only network for all the NICs when configuring RAC, and disable the VB DHCP server, and run my own DNS on a third VM. The way you have done it looks horribly confused.

@John that sounds highly advanced. However if I can't figure this out then I will probably have to go that route. Do you have any suggestions or guides you referred to when you were learning your RAC Configuration? And thanks for the quick reply.
