Re: VirtualBox USB Shared Folders

2014-06-30 Thread Beeblebrox
Several new findings about this problem:

* As advised before, Auto Capture for mouse and keyboard works, but folder
sharing and copy/paste clipboard do not. File  preferences  extensions
shows VNC_4.3.12r93733_OSE. From pkg info  virtualbox-ose-4.3.12_1,
virtualbox-ose-additions-4.3.12, virtualbox-ose-kmod-4.3.12. VBoxSVC.log
shows:
nspr-5   ERROR [COM]: aRC=VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001)
aIID={3295e6ce-b051-47b2-9514-2c588bfe7554} aComponent={ExtPackManager}
aText={No extension pack by the name 'Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack'
was found}, preserve=false

* Although this was discussed before, the problem persists and I cannot find
an adequate explanation:
Using Host_Only network setting with WinXP as VGuest. No network adjustment
made (get all network settings from VBox DHCP). Start the guest, run
ipconfig  IP_address  Net_mask are correct, but no data for DNS_server
or Default_gateway (fields are empty). Such a VM guest can never leave the
vboxnet0 subnet - it must have 192.168.56.1 defined as gateway, if traffic
is to reach the vboxnet0 interface and get forwarded to other subnets.
What's the point of VBoxnet DHCP if I have to go into each VGuest and define
192.168.56.1 as the subnet gateway? Should I be using the proxy setting to
achieve this? If I set static IP and defien 56.1 as default gateway,
everything works as it should.

Also, VBoxSVC.log shows nspr-2   HostDnsMonitorProxy: Host's DNS
information updated: \ nspr-2   DNS server 1: 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.1 is
the ADSL modem, which is visible in the netstat table. However, that's not
the IP where my unbound is running on host. My PF forcibly routes all DNS
queries to the correct address, but I should be able to define
HostDnsMonitorProxy with the correct IP IMHO?

VirtualBox USB Shared Folders

2014-06-24 Thread Beeblebrox
I have {virtualbox-ose-4.3.12_1, virtualbox-ose-additions-4.3.12,
virtualbox-ose-kmod-4.3.12} installed on system  kldload vboxdrv
vboxnetflt vboxnetadp

Certain Guest Addition (GA) features are working (like smooth mouse
transition) but I cannot get USB devices detected and selecting shared
folders setting gives message that GA is not installed and to obtain the GA
iso etc.

* I have defined shared folder for the VGuest in question
* User is member of operator  vboxusers groups

What must I adjust in order to get USB devices detected and shared folders
working on the VM?

1) USB passthru does not work reliable on FreeBSD hosts yet (FreeBSD guests
on Linux/Windows should be fine)

2) Shared Folders for FreeBSD guests are not supported yet. There was a Google
Summer of Code project that did not finish last year. There is some
draft code and
a kernel module for it but it's not working yet. Shared Folders
support for Linux/
Windows Guests on FreeBSD hosts are working fine.
