Topic SeaDAS / SeaDAS 6.x Virtual Appliance for Windows / SeaDAS shared folder not operational, user puzzled (locked)
I just replaced SeaDAS v6.1 with v6.2, and cannot seem to get the shared folder operational again. It appears not to exist at all within the virtual machine. I tried creating a symbolic link as suggested on other posts, but the system tells me there is no folder. I created a shared folder within the Seadas directory and tried again. I tried to generate a test file, and found it within the VM, but not in my windows share folder. I made sure the shared folder was enabled in the drop down menu, and made sure the path was correct. I have a SeaDAS shared folder on my desktop, but it is a non-accessible folder and has no contents. I think there is something obvious I'm missing here, but I am very new to the Linux and I'm not sure what it is. Thanks for the help!

The trouble with menus is that it is hard to post what you see to the forum. Using command-line tools will let you generate
text that can easily be posted here, and you will need them to install updates or support for additional sensors, etc.
Spend a couple hours with a basic linux tutorial and you will find it much easier to use and maintain SeaDAS. Good tutorials can be a bit hard to track down with all the SEO nonsense these days, but <http://linuxcommand.org/> is a good place to start.
<http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/2747> discusses the 'df' command which may help you find the shared folder.
The "mount" command should list the "physical" disks (/dev/sd...) a bunch of "none" lines, and shared folder as
.host:/.. on ... type vmhgfs
