I have been using VB 5.0.16 r105871 on MS-Windows 10 to run a RedHat CentOS image.
Shared disks used to work, but after a RH update no more: Ik get:
$ uname -a
Linux RH.localdomain 3.10.0-327.18.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu May 12 11:03:55 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ sudo mount -t vboxfs TEMP ~/TEMP
mount: unknown filesystem type 'vboxfs'
I re-ran VBoxLinuxAdditions.run from the VB ISO (which I could mount on the Linux guest) to put the proper modules in the kernel, but that did not help.
The archives and HowTo on this forum had this as an old problem but that should have been resolved since VB 5.0.10 .
Anyone have any suggestions what I am missing?

Re: vboxfs disappeared
IIRC the vboxfs is only used with solaris, and everything else uses vboxsf. Are you certain that you are typing it right?
Re: vboxfs disappeared
@Perryg: ah, that's it, good catch: I never noticed fs <-> sf .
