Power off VM loses network config

First of all, Thanks for building these amazing virtual appliances!

This is my first time using the Turnkey appliances, so pls forgive any ignorance on my part...

I am creating a small virtual nework for testing using LAMP stack for the servers. I set up the networking fine and each VM can communicate with the others and I can SSH / FTP from Win 7 host and reach outside world from the VMs...

The problem is that if I shut down any one of the VMs as I normally would (Send the shutdown signal), this has no effect at all. If I "Power off" the machine then all of the network config is lost the next time I start up the machine and I need to reconfigure (I have'nt encountered this before)

I set it all up using the optimized build "turnkey-lamp-12.0-squeeze-x86-vmdk" on Virtualbox.

As a temporary measure, I am powering off the machines and selecting to restore current snapshot...

I would appreciate if you help me. Thanks.
