You need to install virtualbox-ose on the Host and virtualbox-ose-additions inside FreeBSD guests. Shared Folders work fine with Windows and Linux guests but for FreeBSD guests there is no support yet. So you will need to fall back to something like scp, samba, nfs, ... > 2.

The virtualbox-ose port has an VNC option which privides a VNC server per VM that you can connect to. -- Bernhard Froehlich http://www.bluelife.at/
