virtualbox.org

I have installed Windows SP SP3 as a guest and it's working great, I can even login into a domain and everything is fine.

The only problem I have is that Virtualbox shared folders only work when I have admin rights, which I don't have by default due to domain restrictions. So, it means that I need to log in as an administrator and assign my Domain username to the Administrator group before I can use the Virtualbox shared folder.

So, I'm trying to figure out how to solve this issue, as I cannot get permanent admin rights (they just disappear when I reboot). Is there any way to get Virtualbox shared folders working without admin rights? I can connect to other PCs on the network and use shared folders, except for the Virtualbox folders.

Has anyone been able to solve this or a similar situation?

Regards

Not a real solution, but more a work around: set up Samba on your Host. Then you can use the same kind of network share to connect to your Host. If you want to limit the shares to only your VM, check the samba.conf file and add your virtual interface to the Bind Interface list.
