Folder Source

Path your files are stored on host machine, more information.

Windows users: You must use forward-slash c:/dev/vagrant/webroot or double back-slash c:\\dev\\vagrant\\webroot

Folder Target

Path your hosts' files are mounted on guest machine, more information.

Shared Folder Type

Default

This is the slowest option of all. More information.

NFS

NFS is highly recommended for OSX and Linux! Make sure to install the

vagrant-bindfs plugin with $ vagrant plugin install vagrant-bindfs. More information about NFS, and more information about vagrant-bindfs.

SMB

Windows only, and highly recommended. More information.

RSync

If you are on Windows you need rsync installed. The simplest way

is to use Cygwin and install it through there. Alternatively, you can install rsync separately and add it to your PATH. More information.

SMB Host

The host IP where the SMB mount is located. If this isn't specified, Vagrant will attempt to determine this automatically.

SMB Username

The username used for authentication to mount the SMB mount. This is the username to access the mount, not the username of the account where the folder is being mounted to. This is usually your Windows username. If this isn't specified, Vagrant will prompt you for it.

SMB Password

The password used for authentication to mount the SMB mount. This is the password for the username specified by smb_username. If this is not specified, Vagrant will prompt you for it. It is highly recommended that you do not set this, since it would expose your password directly in your config.yaml.

Rsync Args

A list of arguments to supply to rsync.

Exclude Directories

Files or directories to exclude from the sync.

Auto Sync

Vagrant's rsync-auto will watch and automatically sync this folder.

Off

Vagrant's rsync-auto will not watch and automatically sync this folder.
