    I have a iMAC OSX machine with the Intel chip.. My guest OS is Windows 2000 version 5.00. The latest Parallel Tools are installed on the Guest OS and I have updated the iMAC OS to the latest version as well..

    I have followed the following procedures to setup a share.
    To make shared folders available for your guest OS, the following steps are necessary:
    1. Set up the Shared Folder for your VM. To do so power off the VM, then click Edit->Shared Folders.
    2. Select the Enabled option. Click OK in the Configuration Editor, then click Save to save the Virtual Machine configuration.
    3. Power on the guest OS. Сapture input in the Virtual Machine.
    4. After logging on to the guest OS, right-click on My Computer, click Explorer.
    5. Expand My Network Places in the left tab.
    6. Expand Entire Network in the left Tab.
    7. Eureka! You see Parallels Shared Folders.

    When I double click on the share //psf/sharename, I get "Network name cannot be found"
    If there is support for W2k in Beta 6, what am I doing wrong.. If not, I can wait until the next release..

    Thanx!
