Hi,
I have installed opensuse 13.1 as a guest on a Windows 8.1 system using Vmware Workststion 10.1 Vmtools installed automatically and everything works fine all except being able to find the shared folders created in VM Manager. I have looked under mnt/hgfs in File Manager and it is empty. I have tried adding .host:/ /mnt/hgfs as spelt out by Vmware for suse and this crashes the virtual machine and prevents boot up. Sometimes I get through to the host on Samba and other times it tells me there is nothing there. Crazy or what ? Other distros show the shared folders under /mnt/hgfs, I am assuming Opensuse is the same.......................or am I wrong again ?
Any help or guidance would be most gratefully received.
