Hello everyone,
I created my own base box following the Vagrant and other tutorials. The base box looks as if it was successfully created. However, I'm finding that on different versions of Windows (host machine), the Vagrant / VirtualBox setup is responding differently.
I'm using Vagrant 1.8.1 and VirtualBox 5.0.16. The base box is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
On Windows 7 Professional, everything works just fine. The box is loaded and added to the Vagrant environment. I can ssh into it and I see the vagrant shared folder that holds the repository files in the guest machine.
However, on Windows 10, after the box is added to the environment, I get connection issues (authentication failed) with Vagrant but somehow it's still able to ssh into the machine after the authentication attempts time out. Then when I list the root directory, there is no vagrant shared folder.
I've already tried to manually mount the folder through Linux by running the command as well as editing the /etc/fstab file. Also on the VirtualBox machine, when I select Device -> Shared Folders, and look at the name and path of the shared folder it's the same as the one on the WIndows 7 machine that works. This very odd. Not to mention on my Windows 8.1 laptop, the base box won't load at all. All 3 environments are running the same version of VirtualBox and Vagrant. Also, there are no missing Microsoft C++ redistributable files on either system. I've already verified that.
Also, one more thing I've tried is to reload guest additions on the Ubuntu machine itself and that didn't work.
Hopefully someone is able to help. Thanks!
