Re: Virtualbox Guest Shared Folders - DeepThought - 10-08-2019
Code:
sudo adduser $USER vboxsfI'm assuming by the above command you're trying to add yourself to vboxsf group.
The command to add a user to another group is actually, "sudo usermod -a -G <group> <user>".
So in your case try:
Code:
sudo usermod -a -G vboxsf $USERYou will need to logout/reboot the guest for this to take affect.
If you type "id" into the terminal it will list all the groups you belong to, a good way to check which groups you are a member of
Hope this helps.
