VMWare with shared folders - MC17 can't see any of my files, MC16 works fine.

Tried opening one of the files using a mapped drive - got the same error.  Seems it is not related to UNC vs mapped drives.

BartMan01:
A little more info in case it helps:

Running OSX Lion on the host machine.  Running VMWare Fusion 4.0.2.
All files are on a drive connected to the Host machine and accessed via the VMWare Fusion shared folders.

I am using the shared folders, so I don't think SMB is in the mix but:  Apple used Samba with Snow Leopard and prior for SMB sharing, but removed Samba from Lion in favor of their own version of SMB support (due to Samba licensing requirements/issues).  I don't use the built in SMB functionality (I could never get it to work properly with most of my stuff), and instead have Samba 3 installed in Lion.

BartMan01:
Not sure if one of these was in the log I sent, but I am also getting messages like this in the logs:

0005288: 2052: General: CFileSystemManager::GetDriveExists: Drive does not exist (drive: \\vmware-host, filename: \\vmware-host\Shared Folders\Videos\TV Shows\Firefly (2002)\Season 00\*.*)

Matt:
In 17.0.22 and later I added more logging.

Please send me another log once you get a chance to try a newer build and we'll go from there.

Thanks.
