Hello to everyone.

Just for educational purposes I've virtualized MacOS with Virtualbox in
FreeBSD. Problem is that Virtualbox does not support the USB 3.0/3.1
plugin/addon. So,I've thought to some ideas to overcome the problem. My idea is
to use a tool called USB over IP,sharing the USB disks I have from an OS that
can mount them to the MacOS that / which can't. At the beginning my idea was to
install the server part on a bhyve virtual machine,let's say for example Linux
or Windows. But I've soon realized that I can't run both bhyve and VirtualBOX
at the same time. (if someone knows about a trick to do it,please share it :p)
; so,the only place where I can install it is on FreeBSD itself and I will
install the client on the MacOS. And since there is no known USB over IP tool
which can run on it (again : if someone knows about it,please share it), I'm
evaluating virtualhere usb server :


www.virtualhere.com www.virtualhere.com


and I tried to install it with the linuxulator. Surprisingly it started,but
unfortunately it reported another error,telling that it can't find an IP
protocol to communicate with the client :


mario@marietto:/home/mario# ./vhusbdi386

VirtualHere USB Server is running...press CTRL-C to stop
setsockopt - IP_PKTINFO: Protocol not available

what to do here to fix it ?
