Configuring Host only VM on Ubuntu 13.10
Hi
I am trying to setup a Host only VM that I could access even when I am not on any network, I have selected Host only Adapter in the Settings and the name of the adapter is vboxnet0, Now when I start the Turn Key VM , it is not able to get any IP from DHCP , thus what settings should I enter for it to become static IP ? what values to be given for IP address,netmask, Default Gateway and Name Server ?

I'm not a VirtualBox user myself so can't help much other than to suggest you make sure the VirtualBox DHCP server is installed and running.
I found some VirtualBox networking specifics here
I'm sure you could configure a static ip/netmsak/gateway/etc, but the values would depend upon how you have vboxnet0 configured
