Virtual LAN in VirtualBox?

I have 3 VM's in VB that are currently attached to my own home LAN via the "Bridged" network setting in each VM's settings.

I remember back when I had access to VMware Workstation, you could create a "virtual LAN" that only the VM's could be a part off. That is what I'm looking to do, but all I have is VirtualBox. Is there a way to do this?

Essentially, I want the 3 VM's (2x Fedora 11, 1x XP SP3) sandboxed in their own virtual LAN. I need to setup one of the Fedora VM's as a DNS, DHCP, LAMP, Sendmail, etc. server and have the other Fedora and XP VM connect to it.

Another quick question. 256MB RAM enough for each VM for what I'm doing? I tried with 512 each and my system slowed down pretty bad.
 
in your network settings for the VMs, that'd be the "Internal Network" setting i think...

after you choose that you want your adapter attached to "Internal Network" you can then set them all to have the same "Name:"

the little help box at the bottom explains it in more detail...
