Hello all, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this question. I have been trying to get this working for the last few days. I need to mount a directory from the guest under the host. The guest is win XP and the host is linux gentoo. I tried to follow this steps: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/QEMU/Networking#Redirecting_ports However, I keep on getting error 5 (Input/Output). I am able to mount a directory from a real machine runing windows XP, but not from a KVM machine. I am starting qemu with this command: $ qemu -redir tcp:5555::80 -redir tcp:5556::445 -m 1G -vga std -smp 4 qemu-mansour.img and mouting the with this: $ mount -t cifs //localhost/YCO ./xp --verbose -o username="mansour",port=5556, dom=MSHOME localhost qemu # mount -t cifs //localhost/YCO ./xp --verbose -o username="mansour",port=5556,dom=MSHOME Password: mount.cifs kernel mount options: unc=//localhost\YCO,ver=1,rw,username=mansour,port=5556,dom=MSHOME,ip=127.0.0.1,pass=******** mount error(5): Input/output error Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) $dmesg | tail -n 1 CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -5 Where do I need to dig further to find what's wrong ? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
