VMWare, how to access host share?

[T <mlist4suntong@yahoo.com>]

Hi

How can I access my host shares from under Linux within WMWare? 

My host's samba and share folders are working fine -- I can access my host
shares from win2k guest OS. But I just don't know how to access it from
Linux guest. 

- I used to use "nmblookup \*" to look what's out there, but that failed
to show me anything. 

- I also tried to use "smbclient -L <default_gatway>", but that fails too. 

- I can't seem to find such simple instruction on the Internet. 

please help. 

thanks

PS. The Linux guest that I used trying to access host is Elive 0.4.2.
