[SOLVED] problem with network interfaces

Post by pyraylos »

hi. whenever i run a virtualbox on my machine, it creates 2 network interfaces called vboxnet0 and 1. when i close the virtualbox these interfaces stay up and running. i disable them with 'sudo ifconfig vboxnet0 down' and their status is not 'up' anymore. but when i start ums, it gets its ip from these interfaces and not from the actual ethernet as shown on this ums log:
18:50:08 INFO Using address /192.168.57.1 found on network interface: name:vboxnet1 (vboxnet1)
18:50:08 INFO Created socket: /192.168.57.1:5001
18:50:08 INFO WEB interface is available at: http://192.168.57.1:9001
how can i make ums get its ip from ethernet(eth0) and not from virtualbox interfaces?
