Setting up VirtualBox VMs with Host-Only Adapter

The goal is to setup the VM to be able to access the internet, but also have a separate network connecting the Host and Guest machines.

Adding the Host-Only adapter

Under the Virtualmin GUI Console, select File > Preferences. Next, select the Network item  to pull up the list of Network adapters. Create a new Host-Only network adapter. Note the IP address created. The default is 192.168.56.x, but you can change it to whatever you want.

Hyper-V and the Slow Network

A few weeks ago, my new server came in and for two weeks I ran it through some initial testing and provisioned the server for use. Funny that the vendor stated that they would configure it to my spec before shipment. When it arrived, my RAID and BIOS was incorrectly configured. I requested the RAID to be 2x900GB RAID 1 and 4x600GB RAID 10. I got a 2x900GB + 2x600GB RAID 10 and a 2x600GB RAID 1. I really don't know how they screwed that up.
