Description (last modified by )
Hi There,
I have been looking around on the site for a similar issue and while this is simple I do not see it.
I have Snow Leopard installed and Office 2007 along with Google Chrome running regularly.
On the last two versions of Vbox (have 3.0.10 r54097 now), everytime I try to make a New Shared Folder the VM crahses whether I connect to a valid server location or not.
A bunch of months ago, I could have my Windows XP VM find my Windows Media Center server located in another room over Ethernet and some hubs and play all my music stored there or grab or save files.
However, that has not worked for some time and presumably from newer versions of Vbox I imagine since updates happen frequently and while never sure if I should upgrade I always seem to do it anyway.
So, now when I try to point to my Windows machine sharing files or just trying to add a new shared folder in the dialog box the VM crashes and I do not know why.
I attached a crash report for your reference.
If this bug has been previously logged I apologize and could not find a clear match.

Hmmm...I thought I added a whole bunch of logs already or are you looking for something else...? Where are they located on the Hard Drive in general then if you are looking for something else other than what I have provided...?

Can you please attach a VBox.log of such a session (Show Log in the Devices Menu). Also is the folder you like to access an Alias or on a network share? Have you installed the latest Guest Additions?

Hi VBox Support,
OK - I added 3 logs tonight all related to adding a Shared Folder.
Tonight I tried adding one of my hard drives as a folder and each time it just hangs the VM.
Please let me know if you need more info.
Thanks,

On my VM after added the new shared folder the VM still work, but the shared folders don't appear in My network places. My host OS is Leopard Snow and the guest OS ix Windows XP. There is no problem with shared folders on another VM with guest OS Windows 2003 Server.

Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
