How is my Vista shared folder mounted?

I'm looking to solve a certain number of problems with file permissions in a shared folder (Vista host, xvBox 1.6.6, Ubuntu 7.10 guest). I'm sure it's something to do with the way the shared folder is mounted, but I've completely forgotten how this was done. There is no entry in fstab (which is where I was looking), so I can only assume I've done something else in the past to cause the shared folder to be automatically mounted whenever Ubuntu is booted, but if so, I've quite forgotten what it is. Any suggestions?

I discovered the answer - a mount command in my rc.local file. I've now modified this line to be more specific about permissions and am hoping it solves my problems.
