Hi Rene,Your HowTo is quite nice and might be enough for most users, but it depends on modifying the host-system, which needs admin/root privileges. An internal virtual FTP server which serves a directory of the host might be slower, but it would not need any changes on the host side. (Think about portable OS in qemu on USB/Flash-Media, which could easily export e.g. C:\Xchange or ~/xchange into a virtual FTP/WebDAV, which can be used for fileexchange from allmost any guest.) That way you can build a very portable sandbox, which can be run from various host systems.

I wrote up a howto on this: http://qemu.dad-answers.com/viewtopic.php?t=1963I'm not sure if that will provide exactly what the OP was looking for, but it should be a step in the right direction.Rene I was asking for an integrated virtual FTP server (about 14 months ago). But so far nobody came up with a patch to do this. Here's the original eMail: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-06/msg00025.html It spawned a quite big thread thread back then (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-06/threads.html#00025 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-06/threads.html#00025>). I'd still like to see this feature in qemu, as it would be very useful in my opinion. With regards, Jan
