That would be a fix, but I have a lot more disk space on my server.

I suppose I could try bridged networking for that one.  Since the VM 
host is windows, I don't want to hurt my brain by learning how to tune 
the windows firewall.  I was wondering if someone would suggest a fancy 
new network FS, didn't expect samba :-)

Of course as soon as I ask for help it goes a whole night without doing 
it once...  Gotta love heisen-bugs.

To answer Mark's question, no, the hypervisor is under virtually no load.

Thanks,
Matt
