virtualbox.org

i have an XP guest running on Ubuntu 8.10. I have added the sharedfolder /home/billy/Project to the guest settings.

I've tried running the command
but get

System error 67 has occurred.

The network name cannot be found.

I've read that guest additions have to be installed but my version of the sun virtualbox GUI doesn't have the 'Devices' menu.

Can anyone help?

You need to do this from the guest. Start the guest and then machine tab and install guest additions.

Also if you want this share to be accessible every time you open the guest run (net use x:\\vboxsvr\Project -p) from the command line.

haha what an idiot I am! It works now thanks alot!
