My physical PC is running 2 VMs on virtualbox. Both of the VM's are linux 64 bit.

I am going through this tutorial:

in order to expose both of their IP's so that they can speak to each other.

Mike Schwager November 25, 2009 at 10:55 pm Whoops! In section 3, you forgot about editing /etc/hosts. I believe RedHat comes complete with the system’s host ip address set up in /etc/hosts. Don’t forget to give it a look.

I agree with Mike because after I looked into the /etc/hosts files, it has just default localhost stuff in it.

How should I reconfigure the hosts file?
