How to obtain guestadditions ISO or updated files

Post by jgnew »

Browsing through the forms, I came across some information that I now can not find, that guestadditions version 1.5.2 will/might correct a problem I am having with the clipboard (copy and paste) locking up the application receiving the pasted output.

Can someone tell me how to download the .iso file with the 1.5.2 guestadditions so I can correct my problem.

Or, if someone can tell me how to download whatever files I need to upgrade I could manually copy them into place

Hi,

Maybe I'm sort a dumb or something, but I've now searched for half a hour, where to find guestadditions.iso??
I have a Debian Etch server,
yesterday I installed virtualbox and made a virtual windows xp OS with it.

Now I want the windows to find \\vboxsvr\share and I've understod I need to install some software from guestadditions.iso?
Am I going totally wrong way?

Atleast at the moment the windows OS doesn't find the host servers shared folders, so I suppose the guestadditions doesn't install automatically?
