mount share drive with Windows 7

Hi All,

I created a new OVM with Linux 6.3 (basic installation) and want to connect to my system (Windows 7) via a share directory.

I tried:

mount -t vboxsf \myshare /mnt/share

and get error unknown filesystem type "vboxsf"

scond try:

mount -t cifs -o username=myuser,password=mypassword //hostname/myshare /mnt/share

CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation

CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code= -111

What is wrong? How can I connect to share drive?

Regards,

Moh
