Hi
Apologies in advance if this question i previously in the list
somewhere, the search function for the list returns Internal Server
Error.

I'm trying to get Shared Folders to work on FreeBSD guest using WinXP host.

FreeBSD: 8-STABLE
kern.osreldate: 800504

XP-host 3.1.6
Guest Additions 3.1.51

When I do:
mount -t vboxsf vbshare /mnt

I get:

mount: vbshare : Operation not supported by device

'vbshare' is the name I've given to the folder in my vbox host


What kernelmodules have to be loaded to enable mounting of shared folder?
I've now loaded vboxdrv and vboxguest

How can I best troubleshoot this?

-David
