    Unless I missed it, is there a way to share a folder on my mac to share with guest virtual machines? If not I guess I can just setup a network connection from the guest machine back to my mac.

    thanks, scott.

    I have been trying to get networking sharing to work between OS X and XP (my guest OS, natch). I haven't been successful in any of these situations. I agree that the best option would being able to share a folder like we find in Virtual PC.

    I can't get it to work either...

    I've been messing with this for the last 2 or 3 hours and no matter what I do, I can't access the shared Windows folders from the Mac OS, I can't ping the Windows "PC" from the Mac, etc...I swear I must have turned every possible setting on and off and on again several times and ran every possible "wizard" I could find. No luck.

    Is there some other way to copy files from the Mac to the Guest OS?
