Hi everybody,
Here's my setup:
The one that works:
- OS = Windows XP SP2
- VMWare Player 2.03
- Ubuntu 8.04 Heron as a Virtual Appliance downloaded
The one that doesn't work
- OS = Windows Vista SP1
- VMWare Workstation 6
- Ubuntu 8.04 Heron as a Virtual Appliance downloaded
I want to share files between my OS and my VM. I've got only one hard-disk and one partition (C:). So I want to map a network drive from my VM Ubuntu to my OS Windows:
In Ubuntu > Places menu > Connect to Server... > Windows share: @IP of my Windows OS, share folder with Everyone permissions set up on the Windows shared folder.
Type the correct username and password.
It maps correctly on both OS. Now the difference is:
-> I can create new files and folders with XP as OS
-> I cannot create anything with Vista as OS: it is grayed-out.
There must be a setting on Vista to enable a real share using NTFS permissions. Where and how?
I also installed ntfs-3g on Ubuntu in just in case it could help, but no change.
Hope you can help.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Thanks
