Hi Jerry, thanks for the info. I'm a bit surprised as Sun has been tauting xVM so much, well, shame it's not fully functional yet. I'd love to hear from the VirtualBox developers as to the official position on bridged network access and shared folders on OpenSolaris. Was already a bit tricky getting Windows XP to install as a guest on an OpenSolaris host, but after a bit of fiddling I got that done. Just without shared folders and bridged networking it's a bit useless, isn't it... Anyway, maybe we'll hear from the devs about that. Cheers, Hakim -- S.
