Also Ubuntu have an open source version of VMware tools in their repo so even for ISO installed images you should be able to apt-get install open-vm-tools (or something similar - do an apt-cache search to check the exact name). So, far I have done the steps below: GUEST LINUX OS VM -> Settings -> Options -> Shared Folders. Click on Browse and select the folder which you want to share inside your virtual machine. I would expect the VMware shared folders feature to work OOTB and if it doesn't it'd be good to try and work out why. Sharing files between my Guest Kubuntu OS and Host Windows has become a real headache. Ensure configured shared folder in VMWare Player Install open-vm0dkms: Hit the Enter all the way to allow default value Mount Windows shared folder to. How to configure Shared Folder in VMware Workstation Select the VM on which you want to configure shared folder. Out of interest, the VMware tools should be preinstalled when using the VM (zip) images supplied by TKL. For interest sake, TKL have a Webmin Samba module in their repo too, so for TKL appliances you can also apt-get install webmin-samba which allows for really easy configuration of shares. host/ which should theoretically mount all shared folders from the host to the specified directory.Īnd I was going to mention worst case scenario, try Samba! But looks like you beat me to it. And also suggest that you tried just mounting.
I don't even recall exactly what I was going to post, but it was something along the lines of checking that the hgfs module was loaded into the kernel (use lsmod command with grep to filter/limit the results). I was in a bit of a rush though so perhaps just 'previewed'. I actually thought I posted here this morning.
