Shared Folders

$

Hello,

 

 

I'm running VMWare Workstation 6 and I'm trying to set up a shared vm folder programmatically.  So, I'm editing the .vmx file with the additions added to it...

 

 

sharedFolder.option = "alwaysEnabled"

sharedFolder.maxNum = "1"

sharedFolder0.present = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.enabled = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.readAccess = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.writeAccess = "TRUE"

sharedFolder0.hostPath =

sharedFolder0.guestName = "FFX Storage"

sharedFolder0.expiration = "never"

 

 

 

 

 

I fill in the hostPath when I know the user who has logged on. 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, when the VM starts up I see that the vm has setup the folder to be shared.  However, it isn't enabled.  It seems as though the sharedFolder.option= "alwaysEnabled," nor the  sharedFolder0.enabled = "TRUE" is changing the shared folder from being "disabled."

 

 

Does anyone know how to get it working?

 

 

 

 

 

thanks,

 

 

Rod
