In order to help Rapid.Space users in China to adopt IPv6, without using proxy to access Rapid.Space service, we are going to introduce a simple way to install IPv6 in your personal machine(Linux, Windows or Mac), so this particular machine can use IPv6. provides IPv6 connection on all servers, however, most ISP (Internet Service Provider) in China only provide IPv4 network. This is because the Host OS (Windows) doesn’t support the same permission system as Linux, so VirtualBox has no way of knowing who should own the files. So you wouldn’t worry about changing their permissions (which don’t make sense on the Windows host), you just give yourself access. By adding your user to that group, you gain full access.

The regular way of getting access to the files now, is to allow VirtualBox to automount the shared folder (which will make it show up under /media/sf_directory_name) and then to add your regular Ubuntu user to the vboxsf group.

There was above all a lack of clear instructions about how to just get this done, and move on with the rest of your day.Ĭonfigure the shared folder to be auto-mounted (it’s a setting on the Shared Folder configuration in VirtualBox itself).

One of the critical “settings” in such a situation is the setting up of a “shared-folder” in which you can transfer files between the windows host and the Ubuntu-Mate guest. Sometimes you may need to run Ubuntu-Mate in a VirtualBox virtual machine, for example at your place of work.
