hmm ... I am not familiar with hgfs. But looking at
http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-vmware-tools-hgfs-module-on-ubuntu-gutsy-gibbon-7.10
it appears it allows folders sharing between the guest and the host.
Never tried that so I am not sure what could be wrong.

If this doesn't work as expected by you, you could always look at samba
and/or shared folders perhaps.
