virtualbox.org

I've installed the vbox guest addons on my guest (Ubuntu 10.10) and have configured a shared folder on my host (Windows 7), but am having issues accessing it. This is what I did after the guest addon installation was complete...
This worked until I rebooted the guest OS. When I did, I could still see the "windows-share" folder, but it was empty. I also found another folder called "sf_Shared" in the same /media/ directory, but couldn't access it. I added myself to the vboxsf group, but still no luck.

Anyone have an idea as to what's going on here?

The sf_<whatever> is the auto-mount feature and as you found out you need to be in the vboxsf group. However once you have done that you need to reboot the guest for it to show up.

Ah, I can access it now. Thanks for the help.
