For example, in Nautilus it will show "Spice client folder" under "Other locations". From here, the configuration process will depend on the file explorer.
We close the window and enter the guest system itself.With the “Public” folder selected, we click on “Save”.In the window that opens, we choose «Devices and shares».Let's go to the three points of the options.To send files from the guest to the host you have to: Files can also be sent from the three dots (options) at the top right and choosing the “Send file” option. The file will appear in the Downloads folder. If what we want is to do the reverse path, passing something from the host to the guest is as simple as drag it from outside to the window from GNOME Boxes. This is necessary to be able to pass files from the guest to the host. The package must be installed on each of the guest systems. On other distros it may just be called "spice", and might not work as well. For Debian (sudo apt install spice-webdavd) and Fedora (sudo dnf install spice-webdavd) based systems. We will install the spice-webdavd package.The first thing to do to be able to send in both directions is to install SPICE in the host system. In GNOME Boxes we have to install a package and know how to share from host to guest and vice versa, since they are two different methods. In VirtualBox, although the option is not fully visible, we only have to navigate through the options, indicate which folder we want to share and then look for it in the networks section. What's that we can't do after a fresh install of GNOME Boxes? Well share files between host and guest. As we hint, almost everything works perfectly from the beginning, but you have to install an extra package if you want to do something else. Also yesterday we said that we could improve things and that we would soon say how, a moment that has come today. Yesterday we published an article about GNOME Boxes in which we talked about some of its benefits, knowing that it is not a new program, but we had to add it to the Linux Adictos catalog because we did not have it in our archive.
