The easiest way to do this in QEMU is to use the “-net user,restrict=on,hostfwd=...” option. The hostfwd part is optional, but you will require if you want host–guest network connectivity. This way, networking is handled in user space. A more efficient approach is to use kernel-managed networking. It is my understanding that for this, one may use the TUN and TAP virtual Linux devices, but I have never done it. >I realise I probably have to mount the SAMBA horse again. And for >libre software, I'm willing to do all this. Why do you want to use SAMBA? Install a SSH server in the guest and access it from the host using scp, sftp or rsync. Rsync is the most efficient.
