and 10.24.3.102 works for me with the expect script

Hi Robert,
Please help me out here. From what I can see everything matches.
One your Host machine you have: eth0 - 10.24.3.102 wlan0 - It looks like it is disabled since it doesn't have an IP address assigned to it.
Correct
Your VM has eth0 - 10.0.2.15 eth1 - 10.24.3.126
What is the IP Address of your BBB?
My BBB is 10.24.1.189
If you were to telnet to 10.24.3.102 from within your VM, you are just connecting to your host machine.
though port 8020 gets sent to the BBB because of the settings in ser2net, does that mean you're not using the serial connection to connect to the BBB within the health check?
Am I not understanding something here? (It is early and I've only had 1 cup of coffee...)
Let me know.
Or am I confused?
I've been putting the ip address of my laptop in mybbb.dat and hence to the device dictionary and using
/vagrant/scripts/connectBBB.sh ipaddress 8020 root lavauser123
only gets me logged into the BBB if I use the ip of my laptop
Robert
Oh! Then we have had a misunderstanding. First, yes I am using the serial-to-USB cable like you are.
My host IP eth0: 10.0.0.3
My VM eth0: 10.0.2.15 eth1: 10.0.0.23
My BBB eth0: 10.0.0.50
So to connect to my BBB from the VM I use: $ /vagrant/scripts/connectBBB.sh 10.0.0.23 8020 root lavauser123
I must have missed it somewhere along the way when you told me you were putting your LAPTOP (host) IP Address in the connectBBB.sh command.
This may be a silly question, but have you tried it with the IP of the VM? (asks to myself) Why on earth would putting the host IP ever WORK in the first place!? Unless... Do you have ser2net installed on your host? If so, do you have port 8020 redirected to the Serial-to-USB port (/dev/ttyUSB0)? That might be why it worked...
Let me know, I'll keep checking in. Yes as I say above
though port 8020 gets sent to the BBB because of the settings in ser2net, does that mean you're not using the serial connection to connect to the BBB within the health check?
and that's what we step the users through on the BBB page?
The ip address that I get from ip stat on the vm gives me an immediate error
Robert
Woah, please double-check the instructions on the Wiki. I don't think that's what we want to do. Again, this may be one of my stupid-days, so please make sure.
1.) The Bash Shell scripts we call in the Vagrantfile install ser2net on the VM, not the host. Then we modify the VM's copy of /etc/ser2net.conf to add the 8020 line. We don't add it to the host. 2.) I can't get to the instructions on the Wiki right now, but I will double-check them when I get home today. 3.) Please open an Issue on this and copy the conversation into it. We will continue this discussion in the Issue on GitHub.
Luckily we still have time to check this out with the License issue being debated. I hope we can solve it quickly.
