Accessing Guest Folder from Host OS

Post by Gerry1234 »

Hello:

I have a Windows XP host and a Windows Server 2008 R2 guest.

I want to access a folder on the Server 2008 guest from XP. (I know how to go the other way but not this direction.)

Thanks in advance,

Gerry

Just the same way as you would if they were separate physical machines. Put them in the same network and use network file sharing.
