Shared Folders between Win7 Home Premium (Host) and Windows 2000 (Guest)

Hi,

I´m running VMware Player 5 on a Windows 7 Home Premium Host.

The guest system is Windows 2000 SP4.

Recent version of VMware Tools is installed.

I can not get Shared Folders to work.

They are not automatically mounted (albeit the option "Map as network drive..." is activated).

I also can´t connect to \\vmware-host\Shared Folders\

Any hints? Is there a problem with the Home-version aof Windows 7?

I don´t see this problems if I run the same VM on a Win7 Enterprise Host.

Thanks for any reply.

Best,

  Wolfgang
