Starting from a clean Windows 7, I installed VMWare Player and then inside it I installed Ubuntu.

Both OS's can ping each other by IP address, but hostnames won't resolve. What's the easiest way to fix that, other than hard-coding static IPs in their respective hosts files?

Thanks

sudo apt-get install samba - \\linuxhost\share works from windows, and smbmount works from linux.
