To get Internet working on a guest, I usually need this on a host:

# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
# /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

(where eth0 is my connection to the Internet)

That fixed it nicely for me (using a Win XP SP2 virtual machine). Can we get
this  added to the default initscript or similar?

This appears to be the same issue as reported in #240922, so I'm closing this as
a duplicate of that one. Please feel free to re-open this bug with further
details should the issue persist differently. Thanks.
