Ok, this indicates that the problem is independent of Elasticsearch, and therefore cannot be solved by altering Elasticsearch's config. You need to resolve this connectivity issue first.

I agree with what @DavidTurner said... I recommend to install elasticsearch on a server that your laptop can get to... once you get it working... look into the VM that you are using to see what you need to do to get your laptop talking to the VM before installing elasticsearch in the VM.
