  1. you need to access the VM from your PC’s terminal otherwise you will not be able to copy the files on the VM
  2. To access the files you whether its via the terminal or via Filezilla, you need to know your VM IP address you can do so by typing ifconfig in your vm terminal and you should get something like this:
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether f4:0f:24:1a:d7:15 
inet6 fe80::1403:e385:fc5b:1ed8%en0 prefixlen 64 secured scopeid 0x4 
inet 10.0.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
nd6 options=201<PERFORMNUD,DAD>
media: autoselect
status: active
  1. Use the inet IP number to access your vm from your PC’s terminal using ssh frappe@YOUR-VM-IP
  2. You can also use the same ip number to access the VM using FileZilla where the Host is your VM IP number and your login details is the frappe account.
  3. Please NOTE to be able to get the IP number of your VM, you need to set the network setting in the VM Manager as Bridged and not NAT, then select your wifi or ethernet connection when it shows in the select box. You can find more information at this link.

Hope this helps
