Hi there,

what ways of exchanging data between host and guest are supported in
VirtualBox OSE (open source edition)?

I'd be glad to just have some way to save data that I create in my guest
system and transfer them to the host for archiving or further processing.
This doesn't have to be elegant or comfortable, it just should work. 

>From the documentation, the web page on the different editions and the
various newsgroup threads here I would conclude that the open source
edition currently has no direct support for exchanging data between host
and guest:

- Clipboard/Drag'n'Drop is not yet functional
- USB is only supported in the closed source edition
- CD/DVD writing is experimental (can it be activated in OSE, anyway?)
- Access to non-virtual host harddiscs is not supported in the OSE

So the question is: How can it be done?

Thanks,

  Alex
