I have the following problem.

1. I want to create a shared folder in VMware so
2. the host (windows) and VMware (linux mandrake) have a shared folder. I created a shared folder in VMware but I don't know where to check. Can somebody give me the exact way to do it? to share it and access it
3. from your Windows PC, try to open the shared folder by \\<ip address>\<foldername>. You'll be prompted to logon, so make sure you have a user and password in Mandrake that has access to the shared folder.
