Caching from within VirtualBox

[Talicada]

At the moment, I have a computer setup with wingate installed and it is caching everything perfectly, and i am running through the proxy perfectly from my laptop. However, when I have Virtualbox opened on my laptop. Nothing appears on my activity feed from virtualbox. I have set "Internet options" to connect everything through the proxy. I also, have set the proxy settings for Virtualbox and nothing happens. Am I missing something?

Hi

can the virtualbox ping the proxy?

It may be on a different network (e.g. different range of IP addresses), and not consider that it has a path to the proxy.

Yes, it can successfully ping my proxy.

What error does the browser give on the VirtualBox?

No errors, the browser now goes through the proxy perfectly. The thing that isn't working is the update manager, also apt-get update and upgrade. They don't show up in the activity log or even cache any of the files. I'm not sure if this is a overall Ubuntu problem, because I have set up the system-wide proxy to send it through my server.
