Description
Hi,
The problem I'm experiencing is with various Linux guests (CentOS and Fedora) under Windows 7. I have a shared folder on my laptop which through active sync actually exists on a remote share on the LAN. Under 4.3.28 this was not a problem. However under 5.0 the Linux guests (CentOS 5, 6, and 7) receive the error ls: cannot open directory /media/sf_Documents: Invalid argument. Moving the documents from the share to a local folder on the C: drive resolves the issue. Is this a bug or intended?
I'm not sure if this affects other host platforms or other guests.
This is the same problem as in https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/14252
Please try one of test build from the ticket 14252. Thanks.
