.host:/ /mnt/hgfs vmhgfs defaults,ttl=5,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0[/code]
This worked great for me after I unmounted and then remounted the device:
sudo umount /mnt/hgfs; sudo mount /mnt/hgfs
Thanks for the tip!
FWIW, it would be great if Fusion could handle this automatically, since Fusion provides a "read only" checkbox. If a user doesn't check that box, then they clearly want to have write access to the files.
The trick is figuring out who should have such access, since you can have multiple accounts on a Linux VM, but you can only specify a single uid/gid in /etc/fstab. But I'm sure there are some 80% solutions there.
