Dan, we just discussed this issue in my local LUG.   You may or should be
able to telnet in to the NT session running in VMware either from another
box or from an instance of Linux running on your machine.   NT will require
Samba to be set up to access a Ext2 file system.   Should work just like
two separate boxes either way.

I would recommend reading a Samba HowTo  as well as VMware HowTo.   For
specifics you may need to check with the VMware people.
