Export Appliance over network to NAS

Hi,

I'm using VirtualBox 3.1.2 r56127 on Linux (Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit).
I'm trying to use Export Appliance utility to clone my VMs over local network using SMB protocol to NAS.
Simply, I specify GVFS path in the folder selection dialog box, for example:

Code: Select all

/home/mloskot/.gvfs/mloskot on browarekhd/VirtualBox/clones
The process starts but after a minute or so the VirtualBox throws an error. Here is screenshot which I'll try to attach to this post as well.

How should I understand it?
  • Does it mean export over network is not supported?
  • Does it mean there is a bug in VirtualBox and I should report to the Trac?
  • Or, simply I must not have used GVFS path as the one above as it consists of spaces in mloskot on browarekhd ?
I hope this post is not a duplicate, I tried to find similar questions in the archives but seems there isn't any.

Did you try it yet without spaces?
