and for windows users DiskMount (http://www.vmware.com/download/ws/) does a 
similar job (but you cannot mount a suspended machine so you would have to 
shut it down first).

I guess though you want something which runs inside the virtual machine to 
backup just the files which have changed to a networked drive on the host 
machine or a CD/DVD drive?
