OK, I've a question about the reliability of shared folders. Host: OpenSolaris-b118 (all FS are ZFS) ; Guest: Windows XP (sp3)
The maual is clear: Shared folders allow you to access files of your host system from within the guest system, much like ordinary shares on Windows networks would -- except that shared folders do not need require networking. Shared folders must physically reside on the host and are then shared with the guest; sharing is accomplished using a special service on the host and a file system driver for the guest, both of which are provided by VirtualBox. But what I'd like to know is how -SAFE- is it to read/write to share folders on the ZFS filesytem from within XP? If it's safe I could share my photo folders to have access from Photoshop in XP. If not I've to copy all to the virtual windows machine. -- Dick Hoogendijk -- PGP/GnuPG key: 01D2433D + http://nagual.nl/ | nevada / OpenSolaris 2010.02 B118 + All that's really worth doing is what we do for others (Lewis Carrol) _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
