KG Michael Thayer Werkstrasse 24 > VirtualBox engineer 71384 Weinstadt, Germany mailto:[email protected] Michael, thanks for the info about SMB and NAT not playing well together. You are right, I am using NAT, because whenever I tried using Bridged I was unable to connect to the Internet - no email, no browsing... I would love to know how to get past this obstacle. I would be all for using Shared Folders, except for the fact that Guest Additions for OS/2 does not yet have that support. On p.212 of the recent manual, under 'Known limitations', it says: Guest Additions for OS/2. Shared folders are not yet supported with OS/2 guests. Can you suggest another route to sharing folders between the OSX host and eCS _and_ connecting to the Internet from the guest? Thanks. - Dushan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ VBox-users-community mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vbox-users-community
