Have you ensured that your VM 's NIC is set for bridge networking mode versus the default mode of NAT? You will also need to set up a working static IP for your network and ensure the port forwards are pointing the corresponding application ports to the VM IP.

  • Yes I have it to bridged always. In the router the setting is always use the same IP and the ports are linked to the VM's IP in the router –  Sep 07 '10 at 14:45
  • You might consider verifying that the applications are responsive from within the local network. – user48838 Sep 08 '10 at 07:44
