Shared Folders for VMware Workstation 5.x
A relative path is not allowed when setting up the folder thru the GUI, once
you have created the shared folder, you can change the path to relative if
desired for alternate media distribution. I have also renamed all variables
to fully lowercase syntax.
sharedfolder0.guestname = "vmx_share"
sharedfolder0.hostpath = "..\..\share\"
sharedfolder0.present = "true"
sharedfolder0.enabled = "true"
sharedfolder0.readaccess = "true"
sharedfolder0.writeaccess = "true"
sharedfolder0.expiration = "never"
sharedfolder.maxnum = "1"
