Hi Steve, nice writeup and scripts. For communication between your host/externally and guest you can also use ssh and scp: Add to qemu-system-x86_64 commandline: -net user,hostfwd=tcp::5556-:22 Install ssh server on both host and guest. ssh access to guest: From host: ssh -p 5556 localhost From external: ssh -p 5556 <your_host_ip_address> File copy to guest: From host: scp -p -P5556 path/file_on_host localhost:path/file_on_guest From external: scp -p -P5556 path/file <your_host_ip_address>:path/file_on_guest ssh access from guest: To host: ssh <your_host_ip_address> To external: ssh <external_ip_address> File copy from guest: To host: scp path/file_on_guest <your_host_ip_address>:path/file_on_guest To external: scp path/file_on_guest <external_ip_address>:path/file_on_guest From one guest (guest1:port 5556) to another (guest2:port 5557) ssh access from guest1 to guest2: ssh -p5557 <your_host_ip_address> gateway: 10.0.2.2 File copy from guest2 to guest1: scp -p -P5567 10.0.2.2:path/file_on_guest2 path/file_on_guest1 _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
