Dear all,
On my windows XP laptop I have a virtual SL5 machine running in the Sun
VirtualBox framework. The installation went smoothly and the system
behaves well -- in particular the internet connection works like a
charm. But I have two issues I'd like to solve:
1) I did not manage to setup a shared directory to exchange data
between windows and linux. I did define it on the windows side via the
VirtualBox settings menu but I can't mount the disk on the linux side.
The manual (http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html) advocates
the command
mount -t vboxsf [-o OPTIONS] sharename mountpoint
but the output is that this type of mount is not recognized by my SL5
machine. A google search wasn't conclusive either.
2) I'd like to connect to the virtual machine from elsewhere, in
particular from windows XP using an SSH client. There is a lot of
information on the web but nothing pedagogical-enough on SL for a
non-expert user like me.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Cheers,
Nicolas
