The problem is using NAT as networkcard in Virtualbox. It is impossible to reach the virtual box OS using NAT.
There are two solutions:
If you have two network cards like cable, wireless and both are connected to your LAN, then you can change the network adapter in VirtualBox to bridging mode an choose one of the network cards.
The second solution (I particulary use) is installing Haguichi on Ubuntu and Hamachi on Windows. Create a new Network and connect both to the same network and use the IPs given by this virtual network.
