Good suggestion, thank.

I think in my case it will be
VBoxManage setextradata "Linux Guest" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/Protocol" UDP
VBoxManage setextradata "Linux Guest" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/GuestPort" 445
VBoxManage setextradata "Linux Guest" "VBoxInternal/Devices/pcnet/0/LUN#0/Config/guestssh/HostPort" 445

since I want to mount samba cifs windows share.
I think CIFS on windows is using port 445 but I'm not sure on samba on Linux, will it be 139 or 445?
or I just specify port number when mounting it: 
mount -t cifs -o username=xx,password= //10.0.2.15:455/data
