Hello, i installed IPFire 2.19 on Virtual Box with 2 Network Adapter (both Bridge).
The problem is, that i cant open the website on my browser (laptop).
What could be the problem?
If possible, Would be nice, if someone could do teamviewer and solve the problem!
red should be bridge, green should be host-only adapter. Red will pick up an address from your host network and green will pick up an address from virtualbox (if dhcp server is enabled, like 192.168.56.5)
Then, you can point your laptop to https://192.168.56.5:444/ and login to the gui.
I followed many tutorials on youtube, and inserted the same ip´s/gateway every time, and every time when i do for example ping www.google.com -c 3 it doesn´t work. You think if I do the exact same thing as the guy in the guide, it will work?
IPFire 2.19 is two years old. You will not get addons for this anymore and also we are not able to support this. It use a 3.14.x kernel this has no protection against spector, meltdown and co. and it doesn’t know about the 2019 changed dns rootzone key.

This wiki uses a different approach for study theWebGUI and helps to install Ipfire and have a working network setup.
It has downsides, but can be applied also to VirtualBox, if you want.
