virtualbox:networking



I'm running Lenny-amd64.  I set up virtualbox-amd64 from their deb.  Works 
fine, but....I have a network printer (HP Officejet Pro 8500) at 192.168.1.32 
which is within my local network.  The install of virtualbox sets up a 
network on the 10.x.x.x network for access between the guest OS and the host.  
I was able to force the installer to find the printer but it told me that 
since I was crossing networks it might not work properly.  Sure enough, pages 
get dropped during a multi page print job.  

My question is how do I change the IP that virtualbox uses for the guest to 
communicate with the host so that the guest is within my network and my 
printing will work properly?

Thanks for any help,

Mark
