For to mention, the closed source VB comes with Guest Addition installer. You need to install it for USB, audio, video and SHARED FOLDERS (confirmed). I just checked it, working fine. http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/1937/vbshareut2.png
So, 1. Install the guest additions, (on VB, click on Devices >> Install Guest Additions ...) 2. Enable sharing from guest 3. Then follow Shahiduzzamans walkthrough (if you are using Windows as guest). 2008/11/20 Raihan Hasnain Rahman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > If you have downloaded VirtualBox from Ubuntu repository, you have > downloaded the VirtualBox OSE (Open Source Edition), > Which has limited features. > > @ Omi Azad, shared folder worked for me everytime.
