Linux Lite 4.6 Oracle Guest Additions - kenmartin - 10-07-2019

Problem Shared folders under Oracle VM still exists in Linux Lite 4.6:

systemctl | grep vbox

vboxadd.service                  loaded active exited    vboxadd.service

sudo systemctl start vboxadd-service.service
sudo systemctl enable vboxadd-service.service

systemctl | grep vbox

vboxadd-service.service        loaded active running  vboxadd-service.service                                                   
vboxadd.service                  loaded active exited    vboxadd.service

doing  sudo adduser $USER vboxsf  works but still get Permission denied.

ls: cannot open directory '/linux': Permission denied

sudo sh
# ls /linux        Works

Is there a way for this to happen at boot time?

sudo systemctl start vboxadd-service.service
sudo systemctl enable vboxadd-service.service

Also can't get  lpr  to work to virtual USB printer. Example  ls -al / | lpr

Nice well thought out package. I will keep experimenting.
