Hi list,

I know for sure "-smb" option is meant for using samba inside a Windows guest
inside a linux host.

I would like to do the opposite: having a Windows host and a properly configured
samba inside a linux guest, use windows explorer to browse specific disk areas
of the linux guest.

I can already do this using vmplayer in host-only network mode, similar to the
network user mode over slirp. The problem is that I do not know what IP address
I should use when mapping the disk inside windows host.

Indeed, the IP address inside the qemu guest is something like 10.0.2.15, but
I cannot access it from XP. I tried to fiddle with "-redir" options, but it
refuses to redirect port 445 (though I'm admin on XP).

Has anyone managed this yet ? If so, please share the command lines.
It must be possible, but maybe not easy.

Just a precision: I want to use the slirp mode only, not the tap-win32 stuff.
Thanks in advance
