When I'm running a virtual machine, say VirtualBox, if I wanted to use a proxy or service like tor or a VPN, if I only use that on my guest machine, would that be enough? No proxy, service, VPN, nothing on the host machine.

For example, host machine running Win7 connecting directly to the internet. Guest machine running WinVista and using tor to browse internet

Does not having anything on the host machine make a difference? I have noticed when using a VPN on a host machine to get a different IP, but nothing on the guest machine resulted in the guest machine also having the new IP, since I assume the internet is coming through from the host.

How should one use a Tor or a proxy service on a virtual machine?
