Virtualbox Usage
Access to shared folders in Virtual Box Command line By default, VirtualBox shared folders are created with read/write permission for the guest. This can be done from the command line on the host with: VBoxManage sharedfolder add "VM name" --name sharename --hostpath "C:\test" By adding the option --readonly we can restrict these for read-only access. Use the --transient option if you only want the shares to appear in the present session but not persistent for following sessions....
