I am running qnx neutrino 6.4.1 on win & host.
Trying to setup shared folder so I can transfer files back and forth between host and guest, but not having luck.
I've setup a shared folder in virtualbox but unsure what I need to do inside guest os for the folder to show up.

Re: QNX in virtualbox, how to setup shared folder
The shared folders feature only work for the OSes for which guest [del]tools[/del] additions exist and at the moment it's only possible for Linux, Windows and (probably) MacOS X.
In order to share files with QNX you need to find something else.
If I were you, I'd consider using either FTP, NFS or SMB. SMB is probably the easiest option for your Windows host.

Re: QNX in virtualbox, how to setup shared folder
These would be Guest Additions. I'm having a bit of trouble determining what QNX is based on, but according to Wikipedia it might have TCP/IP, which means it might be able to talk on Ethernet.birdie wrote:guest tools
If QNX does not fall under Virtualbox supported guest OS's with Guest Additions(https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch03. ... tossupport), then your only option in Virtualbox is to get it talking on an Ethernet network via SMB/Samba and share a folder in Windows, not in Virtualbox, like birdie says. QNX will also need drivers for one of the 6 virtual network cards Virtualbox provides.
Re: QNX in virtualbox, how to setup shared folder
hmm ok thanks guys. I totally missed that part about guest additions only working on certain OSs. QNX isn't supported by the looks of it.
I will look into other options and see how it goes
