How to get a file off of the Linux guest?

Post by nvtc »

Hi guys. I need to copy a binary config file (~80 KB) from the Debian 6.0.6 guest to my Windows 11 host. I'm no root on this machine and shared folders don't work despite the paths being set correctly. I've managed to initiate an FTP transfer to the FTP server on the host but the file won't be written despite the user having proper access rights. When I try to connect to Dropxbox or something the old Iceweasel browser 3.5.16 won't connect to https sites.

Any idea how to get this file? Thx!

Try it by passing an USB stick to the VM.
