I've a lot of difficulties to be able to download the box from the Fedora 21 host. Both PCs run Vagrant 1.7.1.\r\n\r\nIf I put this in the Vagrantfile:\r\n```\r\nconfig.vm.box_url = file:////<nas>/boxes/ubuntu-1404-64.box\r\n```\r\nIt works on Windows, but not on Fedora, the error is:\r\n```\r\nCouldn't open file //<nas>/boxes/ubuntu-1404-64.box\r\n```\r\n\r\nIf I try this on Fedora:\r\n```\r\nconfig.vm.box_url = smb://<nas>/boxes/ubuntu-1404-64.box\r\n```\r\n\r\nI get:\r\n```\r\nProtocol smb not supported or disabled in libcurl\r\n```\r\n\r\nI've also tried:\r\n```\r\nconfig.vm.box_url = //<nas>/boxes/ubuntu-1404-64.box\r\n```\r\nAnd the output:\r\n```\r\nCouldn't open file /boxes/ubuntu-1404-64.box\r\n```\r\n\r\nI used to run Vagrant 1.6.5 and I'm pretty sure I got it work at least one time with this last syntax, but no way to make it work again, so I upgraded to 1.7.1, no change.\r\n\r\nAny help? Thanks.\r\n\r\nEDIT: This nas is in a Active Directory environment, and, from Nautilus, I do have access to the \"boxes\" folder."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/comments/69355903","html_url":"https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/5150#issuecomment-69355903","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/5150","id":69355903,"user":{"login":"mitchellh","id":1299,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1299?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh","html_url":"https://github.com/mitchellh","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mitchellh/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-01-09T16:13:40Z","updated_at":"2015-01-09T16:13:40Z","body":"It looks like a URL to me, I didn't say it wasn't! :) Vagrant uses `curl` on both Windows and Linux (its own compiled verison, but unmodified) to download and copy box files from URLs. We don't munge the URLs if they're not HTTP so I'm just saying that if you play around with cURL and figure out what the URL structure is that you need to work on Linux, then that is it."}}
