RHEL 5.4 安装 VMware Tools

q3256

　　Vmtools
      VM tools顾名思义就是Vmware的一组工具。主要用于虚拟主机显示优化与调整，另外还可以方便虚拟主机与本机的交互，如允许共享文件夹，甚至可以直接从本机向虚拟主机拖放文件、鼠标无缝切换、显示分辨率调整等，十分实用。
　　安装
      如果选择在VMware Workstation中手动安装（也就是不采用Easy Install）的方式安装RHEL 5.4，那么，也只能手动安装vmtoos了，如下：
　　（1）选择VMware Workstation的菜单“VM/Install VMware tools…”,VMware Workstation会自动加载vmtoos的iso到当前运行的系统的cdrom，并默认挂载到“/media/VMware Tools”。
　　

 
（2）在当前系统RHEL5.4中，执行以下命令：

　　[iyunv@rhel54 ~]# mount
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)

The configuration of VMware Tools 8.4.5 build-324285 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully .

You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox -cmd " from the
command line or by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox " from the command line
during an X server session.

To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1.  Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,
3. Restart your X session.

To use the vmxnet driver, restart networking using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/network stop
rmmod pcnet32
rmmod vmxnet
modprobe vmxnet
/etc/init.d/network start

Enjoy,

　　（3）在Vmware 界面中选择“vm/setting…”菜单打开“setting”窗口， 选择“Options”标签页，选择“Share Folders”，在右边点击“Add”按钮，选择主机目录。在Linux中进入到“/mnt/hgfs”目录就可以看到windows下的内容，同样你可以在linux下将文件拷进此文件夹传递到windows下。
