#11475 new enhancement

Shared Folders with OS/2 as guest.

Reported by: OS2Bud Owned by:
Component: shared folders Version: VirtualBox 4.2.6
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: other Host type: Mac OS X

Description

Shared folders with an OS/2 guest are apparently are not implemented or maybe just broken. This makes for a very awkward process of getting data into and out of the VM in many instances. Please consider fixing or implementing this. I as well as any other OS/2 user would be very glad to test what ever was done. OS/2 in general runs very well in VBox for which I am very thankful. If this issue was fixed it would be a great help.

Thank you for your consideration.

I got around the problem by writing a little socket-based transfer script, but that's not exactly a general solution. This would be a handy feature. I'm not really able to help code it, but if it's written, I'll gladly help test it! We have several OS/2 guests now, always running under Linux (either Debian or Ubuntu).

Shouldn't this be duped to #7329?
