    Hi,

    I'm running parallels 18.2.0 (53488) on a Mac OS 13.2.1 as a host.
    Guest OS is Mac OS 10.13.6.

    If selected some shared folders on the host, to which I was able to connect to at the guest.

    After a break in work, I wanted to continue working in the VM, but the connection to the shared folders was no longer possible and I could not access the open files.
    The OS error message "An error occurred while connecting to the 'Shared Folders' server. It is possible that the server is not present or currently unavailable. Check the server name or IP address and network connection, then try again."

    I'm able to ping the host, but cannot create an smb connection.
    It's no problem connecting the host via smb from another computer or a windows VM running at the same host.

    I created the tecnical report, which ist stored at no. 420493435

    Thanks

    If I reset the VM, the connection is created, I can open "Shared Folders" - but after a while, the same message appears...

    And: It's no problem connecting from the guest to a different smb server (e.g. at my freeNAS Device).
    So the problem exists only between the 10.13.6 guest and the 13.2 host...
