This needs me to first create the host network manager: File » Host Network Manager » Create.

Hi. I want to know what the steps would be for windows 7 when it’s the guest OS, as the command line inputs you are using are invalid for windows of any form. My host OS is Linux mint 20, and the guest OS is Windows 7. My assumption is that the steps are the same for setting up the VM itself, but once you are working inside the VM, obviously the steps will be different even if very similar.

Hi Nick,

Thanks.

Your comment was so apt for the problem I am also having. I also realized you need to work with Host Network Manager first.

Oh yes, the purpose of this section was simply to demonstrate how to connect to a VM using its IP address, via SSH once there is a host-only connection established between the VM and the host.
