QEMU
####
Exchange files with host using samba [#shared-folder]_
======================================================
When running QEMU, add the following options to the ``qemu-system-x86_64``
invocation command::
-netdev user,smb="/path/to/shared/directory",id=mynet0 \
-device e1000,netdev=mynet0 \
The shared directory can be mounted by a guest Linux machine like this::
mount -t cifs //10.0.2.4/qemu <mountpoint> -o user=<user>,pass=<password>
The ``<user>`` and the ``<password>`` can be almost *anything* existing or not,
even nothing, you even can provide just ``-o user=,pass=``.
The ``-t cifs`` part might be optional if ``mount`` supports inferring file
system type.
To mount it via ``/etc/fstab`` add the following line to the file::
//10.0.2.4/qemu <mountpoint> cifs user=<user>,pass=<password> 0 0
On Windows you can just enter the following address into explorer's address
bar, no authentication required::
\\10.2.0.4\qemu
Overall it looks like this:
