Virtual network access allows you to use samba or nfs from within the virtual os. Unfortunately i am not familiar with samba or nfs, I know about their existence though. Have never tried them out and don't want to at the moment as i believe the learning curve to start it is a bit high. For file transfer you may find ssh easier. Indeed ssh is easy and i made it work. However i still do not know how to copy using ssh from putty into a windows folder.

Indeed ssh is easy and i made it work. However i still do not know how to copy using ssh from putty into a windows folder. You can use the SSHSecureShellClient-3.2.9 to copy files using SSH. I guess there is a similar software for putty too.

[Ilugc] Reading data in a virtual OS
Hi, I needed to run windows and other operating systems on my debian etch system and hence i installed qemu which was referred in one of the previous mails in this mailing list . What I would very much like to know is if there is some way of reading data from an external source from within a virtual system? For example suppose I am running windows on qemu can I access some part of the debian file system from within windows? Also can i attach a usb and read the data from the usb? ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with unsubscribe password address in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Virtual network access allows you to use samba or nfs from within the virtual os. For file transfer you may find ssh easier. For transferring a single file you may find netcat easier still. All of this applies to any two computers connected via a network of course. In the virtual case, the network is virtual and so transfers are significantly faster. :) Kapil. -- ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with unsubscribe password address in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
