unable to join domain using virtualbox
- by FreshPrinceOfSO
I'm in the process of setting up a VM environment for a MS certification exam (70-462). Following the training kit's instructions, I've set up a domain controller (DC) and two members (SQL-A, SQL-B) thus far. I can't figure out why I can't join the domain.
DC
IPv4 Address . . . : 10.10.10.10(Preferred)
Subnet Mask. . . . : 255.0.0.0
DNS Servers. . . . : ::1
127.0.0.1
SQL-A
IPv4 Address . . . : 10.10.10.20(Preferred)
Subnet Mask. . . . : 255.0.0.0
DNS Servers. . . . : 10.10.10.10
SQL-B
IPv4 Address . . . : 10.10.10.30(Preferred)
Subnet Mask. . . . : 255.0.0.0
DNS Servers. . . . : 10.10.10.10
I've read how to do networking between virtual machines in virtualbox and the documentation.
After trying various network adapter configurations, I can't get them to communicate in order to have the two members join the domain.
When I ping from .30 to .10, I get:
ping 10.10.10.10
Pinging 10.10.10.10 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 10.10.10.20: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 10.10.10.20: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 10.10.10.20: Destination host unreachable.

Trying to join the domain:
netdom join SQL-A /domain:contso.com
The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.
The command failed to complete successfully.
Within VirtualBox, I've tried the following combinations for network adapter:
Attached to - Promiscuous Mode
-------------------------------
NAT
Bridged Adapter - Deny
Bridged Adapter - Allow VMs
Bridged Adapter - Allow All
Internal Network - Deny
Internal Network - Allow VMs
Internal Network - Allow All
Host-only Adapter - Deny
Host-only Adapter - Allow VMs
Host-only Adapter - Allow All
Edit
ipconfig /all of DC
ipconfig /all of SQL-A
