[vagrant-up] The host path of the shared folder is missing

[Dean Egan]

Hello.

I have an EC2 instance (Windows Server 2016) that holds 2 directories.
These directories are shared to Everyone.
I tested this by opening Windows Explorer on my local PC and typed
\\<Publlic_IP_of_EC2>\filename\ and I was able to see the files.

I am trying to use Vagrant to build another EC2 instance and sync the
directories from my existing EC2 instance to the new one.

When I use the config.vm.sync.folder command, It get "The host path of the
shared folder is missing.
The syntax I am using is:
config.vm.synced_folder 'smb://PublicIPAddressofEC2/c$/foldername/ ',
"C:/vagrant", disabled: false, type: "smb", smb_host: "PublicIPAddressofEC2",
smb_username: "Administrator", smb_password: <password to use when RDPing
into EC2 Instance>, mount_options: ['vers=3.0']

I have also tried "//PublicIPAddressofEC2/foldername/" and "\\PublicIPAddressofEC2\foldername\
" , every time I get the error "The host path of the shared folder is
missing".

Can you please help me understand why I get this error and how to get past
it?

Kind Regards,
Dean
