insanedown58 Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 So... I just change the Mac AND the IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixeluh8 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 host OS = makes invites, sends email to your dummy email accountsguest OS = creates email accounts, accepts invitation, run dropbox installer in sandbox so it would be much faster to rerun the installer for your next account that needs instaling setup.. just make sure you changed your external IP addy before accepting (logging In) at dropbox site.. clear cookies/browser history after every session.. hope you understand what i wrote, im kinda not good on explaining things and stuffs..

insanedown58 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Hmm.. which IP do I change? The one on the VM or the one on the Host? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mara- Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 On the host, but not the IP in your adapter, you need to reboot your modem to get the new IP from your ISP.Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insanedown58 Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Would a cheap software say HideMyIP enough to fool them? Can I just change the IP of the VM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just your local computer IP. You must get new IP from your ISP. HideMyIP should work. Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insanedown58 Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Ok.. I tried using the Proxy way but it still says that the referral was ineligible. I managed to get this method to work only once in VMWare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insanedown58 Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 I got it done with VirtualBox. Although it was sluggish, at least it worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
