I updated to the latest and it works! $ sudo mount -t vboxvfs -o uid=3D1001 Source /mnt/srcr $ uname -a FreeBSD fbsd 12.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE r354233 GENERIC amd64 The only issue is the mount points are not made permanent according to = the Shared Folders dialog in VirtualBox. I tried editing fstab, however the changes were lost. Does anyone know = where to place the mount options?
