In the guest (prl-dev virtual machine) Shared Folders are mounted inside /media/psf. Check them out:

# mout | fgrep /media/psf

Hi @ronn0, Looking at the first screenshot I can say that your shared folder settings look misconfigured. "Home folder only" should not be selected there. Luckily, it's easy to fix. Just run this on your Mac host:

prlctl set prl-dev --shf-host-defined off
prlctl set prl-dev --shf-host-add Users --path /Users

And then restart the VM:

docker-machine restart prl-dev

After that you should see the shared folder mounted to the VM:

$ docker-machine ssh prl-dev -- ls /Users
Guest
Shared

Note that /Users path is hardcoded in our driver, so you can't mount other folders by default (e.q. you can do it only manually). Here we just follow the behavior of other drivers in upstream, such as vmwarefusion and virualbox.

This did the trick. Thanks for that.
