VirtualBox network connectivity

[Alain Muls]

Hi

I installed VirtualBox and winxp as a guest. I need this for a program 
that only runs on Windoze.
I cannot get the internet connectivity in the guest OS though I tried 
using with all available options for netwworking in the virtual machine. 
I also tried out the approach from
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Automatic_Bridge_Ubuntu


but get the error at the launch of the cirtual machine

VBox status code: -3100 (VERR_HOSTIF_INIT_FAILED)

If I disable the network interface, than windozexp starts up.

Any ideas
Tx/Alain
