From within windows XP on the virtual box I can see the 'world' using internet explorer. running ipconfig in XP it shows my interface as having a network address of 10.0.2.15 and a default gateway address of 10.0.2.2 running ifconfig on my linux box hosting the virtual box i have eth0 with an ip address of 192.168.1.69. My router to the internet is 192.168.1.254.
The questions are.... a) How can I connect from other machines on the 192.168.1.xxx network to the windows machine and vice versa? b) Can I open the connection to allow upnp connections?

In order to get other machines able to "see" the virtual machine, you are going to need to change the networking within the VM from NAT to Bridged mode. This will allow that XP VM to have an IP address within the same subnet as the other hosts on your 192.168.x.x network.

I read on the opensuse wiki a method that seemed to assume you have 2 ethernet cards...
