I solved by using vboxmanage to get the ID of the VM. $ vboxmanage list vms “my-vm” {c700b8b6-b766-4638-871b-736b44b7db18} Copy the ID of the desired VM (the c700…db18 string) into the contents of ~/.vagrant/machines/default/virtualbox/id. Save the file then run vagrant up to get the vm working without having to destroy it.
When you run vagrant ssh, it’s actually using this underlying command: ssh -p 2222 -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o LogLevel=ERROR -o IdentitiesOnly=yes -i ~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key vagrant@127.0.0.1 SSH supports forwarding ports in the direction you want with the -R guestport:host:hostport option.

Instead, you could try $ vagrant init hashicorp/precise32 $ vagrant up which uses a standard Ubuntu image. The Vagrant website has a Getting Started which gives some good examples.
Since you ask for the easiest way, I suggest using vagrant-scp. It adds a scp command to vagrant, so you can copy files to your VM like you would normally do with scp. Install via: vagrant plugin install vagrant-scp Use it like so: vagrant scp <some_local_file_or_dir> [vm_name]:<somewhere_on_the_vm>
Disclaimer: I wrote Vagrant! But because I wrote Vagrant, I spend most of my time living in the DevOps world which includes software like Docker. I work with a lot of companies using Vagrant and many use Docker, and I see how the two interplay. Before I talk too much, a direct answer: in your … Read more
