    In Debian the mount point is /mnt/hgfs/Plex. I had to add an fstab entry to automount the directory from the VM host.

    That entry is here:
    .host : / /mnt/hgfs fuse.vmhgfs-fuse auto,allow_other 0 (*Note, in case anyone tries this, the : and / are right next to ".host". but together they make Confused-face on the forum, so I added a space in between)


    ls -ld below:

    xxxxx@debian:~$ ls -ld /mnt/hgfs/Plex/
    drwxrwxrwx 1 501 dialout 448 Jun 9 06:50 /mnt/hgfs/Plex/

    And the same but from the Mac:
    xxxxx@Mac-mini ~ % ls -ld /Volumes/Plex
    drwxrwxrwx@ 14 xxxxx staff 448 Jun 9 06:50 /Volumes/Plex
