2 Err with VBox 1.5.2 and Ubuntu7.10:Shared Folder & USB

Post by matthew_eli »

Hi to everybody; i have two problems with VirtualBox 1.5.2 and Ubuntu 7.10 as Host and WinXP as Guest:

1- Shared Folders: I don't manage to reach the Shared Folders that i have specified. In WinXP i don't manage to reach WORKGROUP too.

2- USB: when i try to enter in the settings of my VM i have this message from VirtualBox:

Code: Select all

Could not load the Host USB Proxy Service (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). The service might be not installed on the host computer.


Codice&nbspd'uscita: 
0x80004005
Componente: 
Host
Interfaccia: 
IHost {81729c26-1aec-46f5-b7c0-cc7364738fdb}
Chiamante: 
IMachine {31f7169f-14da-4c55-8cb6-a3665186e35e}
I have installed the Guest Additions 1.5.2.

Thanks to everybody in advance

Use NAT or Host Interface Networking together with Samba and forget Shared Folders.
