Shared folders with Ubuntu?

I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS as a virtual machine and I can't see my Mac's shared folder under /mnt/hgfs.  Any ideas?

It sounds like either Tools is not installed or the kernel was upgraded which would cause you to have to re-install Tools.

Please see the following KB on installing Tools in Ubuntu:

Thanks.  It was due to the Ubuntu updating after the install.
