shared-folders

I use VMware Fusion under Mac, and I have installed Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7 as virtual machine.

Under Ubuntu, by "shared folder", I used to manage a common folder with Mac via /mnt/hgfs/myfolder. Under Windows, I have set up so that this folder is also accessible.

But today I cann't find myfolder anymore under /mnt/hgfs in Ubuntu, while it is still accessible via Windows (and Mac of cause).

I tried to restart the machine, reset the sharing settings, it still does not work.

Could anyone help?
