<title>Long Delays When Accessing Shared Folders</title>
<body>
<p>
The performance for accesses to shared folders from a Windows
guest might be decreased due to delays during the resolution of
the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> shared folders name service. To fix these
delays, add the following entries to the file
<filepath>\windows\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts</filepath> of
the Windows guest:
</p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">255.255.255.255 VBOXSVR #PRE
255.255.255.255 VBOXSRV #PRE</pre>
<p>
After doing this change, a reboot of the guest is required.
