IT nerds only

I've set up a virtual server running centos (redhat) with VirtualBox. The goal is to run LAMP and configure Drupal on it.

It's a pretty minimalstic install of centos so all I have is a CLI (shell). MySQL, Apache & SSL are running fine. Already installed Drupal and created a db with a user which has all privileges.

All I have to know now is how I should connect to this server via "https://<ip>" from my host OS. I've read some things about changing the networking mode to bridged but that doesn't really seem to work.

you IT nerd.
Has it not provided you with a local IP for the VM?
Ye sure, I got the IP of en1 via ifconfig.

When I enter it on my host OS it doesn't seem to work, pinging also fails.

What software are you running, it should also give you another interface on the host which is effectively the VM
Parent
My OS (host OS): Mac OS
Guest OS: CentOS 5.5
VM: VirtualBox

rtfm + google
Been googling for the past 2-3 hours, I'm pretty desperate.
