Dear All,
I am very new to this vb. please help me.
My Operating system is Windows-7, on this i had installed Virtualbox (Version 5.1.16 r113841 (Qt5.6.2)). Inside the virtualbox, I had installed CentOS7 and also VBox additions.
I wanted to share a folder in windows operating system to CentOS-7 through share folder option.
In CentOS-7, i could very well see that it is mounted and but I cant access the files.
I get an error with permissions.
by typing df, i get the following message
NMRdata_forVirtual /media/sf_NMRdata_forVirtual
but when i try to cd
bashsf_NMRdata_forVirtual/: Permission denied
when i do ll
i get
drwxrwx--- 1 root vboxsf sf_NMRdata_forVirtual
Can somebody help me to sort this ?
Thanks
permission error

Re: permission error
Add your user name to the vboxsf group on the guest and reboot.
