I am using vagrant 1.6.2 on Windows 7, to run a Ubuntu 12.04 Virtual Machine.
I have enabled this on my Vagrantfile:
config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 3000, host: 3000
config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 27017, host: 27017, auto_correct: true
config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 27018, host: 27018, auto_correct: true
config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 9494, host: 9494
In the box, I can see that Mongodb is running,
~ $ mongo
MongoDB shell version: 2.0.4
connecting to: test
> exit
bye
However, from my Windows Host, I am unable to connect to the Mongodb instance, using localhost:27017.
The auto_correct: true was something I read on one of the forums, and tried it out.
On vagrant up this is what I get on the console:
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...

GuestAdditions 4.3.12 running --- OK.
And if I do a rackup -p 3000, I am able to hit http://localhost:3000. Port 9494 also works, it is just the Mongo ports that aren't working.
And I had Mongo installed in my host (Windows), I uninstalled it, still the same problem.
Any hints?
It seems your Vagrant port forwarding is working fine. Your issue is probably because MongoDB is setup to only listen on 127.0.0.1. Check your bindip setting.
