Actually, I don't think the host-to-guest file sharing is done via SMB / CIFS. When I view the Properties dialog in my current VMware setup, it shows the type as "Network Drive" and the "File System:" as "HGFS" (which I've never seen or heard of elsewhere, I don't think). As far as I can tell, this is a VMware-proprietary file system used solely for the purpose of host-to-guest file sharing.
have you done anything special (other than install vmware tools and enable the option) to get the shared folder thing to work? I have never seen the shared folder inside a windows VM ... I've always just assumed that this might be "one of those things" that doesn't work with a linux host ...
