The guest editions allow us to shared folders between the host and the guest and other books his fines
and they allow us to share data between the host and guest in other be as well.
To a shared shared clipboard and Dragon and board.
Let's take a quick look at each of these features starting with Chad shared folder.
I didn't go into the machine setting and find the shared folder option.
You can do this from the menu bar or from the setting on the menu just to clean it.
I can add machine folders or Brazee clumsiest folder.
I don't have any set up right now but clicking on the folder with the green blessed overhead on the
right brings up a window that I can add a folder for the part here is the part to the file that I want
to share on the host computer.
I will choose my downloads folder and folder name is whole I will access the folder in the guest operating
system.
You can Tandi if you like but make sure that it does not have any spaces.
I can choose to make the guest access to the folder read only and do auto mode the share that can be
convenient because mentally mounting I hear takes a little bit of walk.
But you need to restart the guest for the share mode automatically.
And I can choose whether to make the share of money and if it is permanent it will show up under the
machine folders and if not it shows up under runs just for that.
I even made this one permanent moseying over the box that was just edited.
I can see a lot about how all these folders in Windows and Linux.
Let's take a closer look at that.
That in Windows I can use the NEC to use command at the command prompt or browse the network to find
the server called baulks day server and then attach it to the share that we Linux like and make a mount
board and then mount the sheer amount of the are look for vitiate after restarting the shear might have
Assef underscored in front of the name for a shared folder are commanding will mark the Shearer's route.
So you may need to add your user or other users to the Reebok's S.F. group and log back in in order
to be able to access the shared.
I will save that and then I will go to my guest and mark this manually.
To do this typing I even create a place to mod this year and then I will use more
for Viborg shared folder type.
And you can see on the screen the name of the share.
In this case downloads and the part where I want to mod 8 it does have all mounding white and then it
is typing.
There's a file on my host accessible inside the guest.
Again if you choose to order mode you will need to restart and the sheer will mount on Windows that
will be a nickel drive and all lynching's you may need to add yourself to correct group in order to
get access.
For example I can't I can't inject it here as my use of the shared clipboard next to the guest and host
here whatever is on the clipboard or more so you can copy text on one side and paste it on the other
that can be particularly help particularly helpful for copying and pasting come ons or code or you are
a liar.
What else are nibbling.
I will go to devices and to shared clipboard and then I will choose which mode to use if you need to
also escalate.
Isolate one system or another.
You can choose to allow only host to guest our guest to host making it one way sharing or bisectional
so that host and guest can both read and write information in the Clipboard.
I will choose bidirectional here and I will open up a text editor on my host and then select it and
copy it.
With Control-C our common see on the Mac then I will go to my first and open up our text editor and
paste there's my pasted text.
I will add that I will type some more text select data and copy it and move back to my host and paste.
Keep in mind that if you are pasting to or from a Linux terminal you will need to use Control shift
see or control shift key instead of Control-C or control the the last of the guest addition addition
sharing features that they want to show you.
Is drag and drop like with a shared clipboard.
This can be one way or two way.
I will go to device is drag and drop and use bidirectional as you can see on the screen.
I will create a new version here and then I will open the file browser on the host.
I will need to resize my VM for that.
Then I will take my folder and drop it on the file browser and there's my folder with Windows.
I find that this works well but dropping files into the Linux first Linux guest at the time I am recording
these does not seems to work.
It worked fine on Windows though so I did recommend that if you need to get files back on forth between
Linux guest and host that you use a shared folder rather than drag and drop these three features shared
folder shared glyph clipboard and record drop can make working with the guest appearance just a little
bit easier.
So next next year we're going to discuss networking with what toolbox.
So see you next lecture.
