My host machine is a Mac (and I have a folder on the Mac I want to share) with my Windows Virtual Box using WSL
Windows sees the folder no problem. If I type net use
at the command line I see the folder:
C:\Users\claudio>net useNew connections will be remembered.Status Local Remote Network------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Y: \\VBoxSvr\claudio VirtualBox Shared FoldersThe command completed successfully.
If I go to the WSL shell and type: net.exe use
I can also see the folder.
C:\Users\claudio>net useNew connections will be remembered.Status Local Remote Network------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Y: \\VBoxSvr\claudio VirtualBox Shared FoldersThe command completed successfully.
However, from WSL I cannot browse to the folder location as I would usually do on a Linux system: cd /mnt/y
the only drive I see is c.
Doing:
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/ysudo mount -t drvfs '\\VboxSrv\claudio' /mnt/y
as someone suggested doesn't work.
I now see the drive y but not the specific folder (I suspect this is because the file system of the folder is a Mac one)
