Yes, I did eventually get it to work, and the O/S is Ubuntu. I used pull down menus instead of code. (Which I was doing backwards because I didn't understand the order correctly.) This example is very clear.
Thank you!

Given you're trying to `sudo', I'm going to guess it's a Linux variant. If you create a Shared Folder for the VM as follows: Folder Path: /usr2/tmp Folder Name: oreo_usr2_tmp You mount it as follows: mount -t vboxsf oreo_usr2_tmp /path/to/existing/directory Cheers, -- Pablo Sanchez - Blueoak Database Engineering, Inc Ph: 819.459.1926 Blog: http://pablo.blog.blueoakdb.com Fax: 760.860.5225 (US) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
