What I want to do ?
is to telnet to Solaris 11 server installed on VirtualBox from host computer and others using same network.
Problem ?
I can't connect to the virtual solaris 11 telnet via putty or tera term.
It throws me connection timeout.

Port : 23
Service : Telnet
SSH version : SSH2
Protocol : UNSPEC
**** Putty connection setup ****
Host : 10.0.2.15

I set up Solaris 11 on VM VirtualBox ( 4.3.18 ) in Windows 8.1 pro O/S and I had telnet setup through terminal,
sudo pkg install /service/network/telnet
.
.
( after the installation was completed )
svcadm enable telnet
This made telnet configured right, I could see this status message...
svcs - a | grep telnet
online 3:09:16 svc:/network/telnet:default
It seems okay, and port number 23 is active and listening. This is the port's status.

Network seems fine, I can browse the Internet through the pre-installed FireFox by the way.
VirtualBox network configuration looks like this

Should I give you more info related to telnet configuration?
What seems to be the matter? How can I get through this?
