• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Ok, guys, what am I missing here. Really quite confused here.

Code:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyhd "C:\Users\username\Virtua
lBox VMs\rhel6.5\rhel6.5.vdi" --resize 40000
Oracle VM VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 4.3.4
(C) 2005-2013 Oracle Corporation
All rights reserved.

Usage:

VBoxManage modifyhd         <uuid|filename>
                            [--type normal|writethrough|immutable|shareable|
                                    readonly|multiattach]
                            [--autoreset on|off]
                            [--property <name=[value]>]
                            [--compact]
                            [--resize <megabytes>|--resizebyte <bytes>]


Syntax error: unknown option: --resize
 
Of course, as soon as I post this, I figure it out....

Code:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyhd --resize 40000 "C:\Users\
username\VirtualBox VMs\rhel6.5\rhel6.5.vdi"
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
