Hi
I need to access a local NTFS share on the pc from inside Virtual PC
running Fedora as the host o/s.
I have installed unix services for windows but to no avail :-(

The share is on the local pc that virtual pc is running on and is
shared.

Has anyone done this sucessfully ?

Thanks in advance

You do this exactly the same way as if you had separate (but networked
together) PCs with Fedora and Windows, nothing VPC-specific. [One way is to
install Samba on the Fedora [V]PC. I don't remember the details, just that
it was a pain, but in the end it worked for me - do a Google search for
"samba install".]
