April 28, 201610 yr Good day! So I'm new to unraid 6 and learning as I go. I built a VM using the newest release of ubuntu server to host a game server. I would like to be able to telnet into the server for various reasons but I honestly am not having any luck figuring out how to do this. When I use putty and connect to my server's IP I get to the terminal screen for Unraid which is what I was expecting. How can I connect to the Ubuntu server? When setting up the VM I chose Bridge mode for ethernet which was recommended in the VM documentation. Or at least it was the way I read it. I could have been mistaken there. Host mode would have given it it's own IP that I could have used. Not sure if that is the way I should be doing it or not. At any rate your help and input would be much appreciated.
April 28, 201610 yr That sounds like you are having the same issue I have with an ubuntu 16 server, https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=48722.0. As I wrote, it works as expected with ubuntu 14, so I think there is something special about ubuntu 16 that works differently, but I'm not an expert on those matters
April 28, 201610 yr Author I actually got this working after quite a bit of trail and error and google. I turned off my VM and got it's MAC address from the info. I then got into my router and found it and assigned it a static IP. I then installed Open SSH server on my Ubuntu server. Thanks for the response Pengman I appreciate it. I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and unraid 6.1.9
