Five methods of file exchange between Linux and Windows in VMware

Five methods for Linux file exchange on windows in VMware The first method adopts the NetBIOS protocol. Samba is installed in Linux. Smbmount // ip/sharename/mount point NetBIOS is not stable enough. Sometimes it cannot be mounted. You also need to pay special attention to the Windows Guest user. Set the password. It is also important to set access permissions. The second option is to select a Virtual Machine (the virtual machine must be stopped first. It is only available when the instance is shut down. Edit virtual machine setting -- add -- hard disk -- use a physical disk (for advanced users) -- divrce. Is it SCSI, SATA, or IDE. ) After adding the file, you must attach the file. For files in NTFS format, you must also download the support software with the same core version for Linux. And install. If you want to mount the file automatically each time, you need to repair it to the/etc/fstab file. Third, use the SSH Secure software. Install it in windows. And enable the sshd service in Linux. Connect to Linux remotely. Enter the Linux user name and password. Log on to Linux. You only need to drag the file in the window. Very convenient. It is also the best method. Fourth: If your VMware is running in Windows, you can use the vmtools sharing mechanism to exchange files, which is the fastest and most convenient. (1) install vmtools: After Linux is started, click "VM-> install VMware Tools". VMWare virtualizes the required files into CDRom and decompress the tar.gz file in the CDROM, then run the vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl with the default settings until the installation is complete; (2) In the virtual host settings of VMware for Windows, add "share folder" to the Linux virtual system, for example, C:/downloads; (3) in Linux, under the/mnt/HGFS directory, you can see the shared directory and files in the directory in step 1, which are synchronized in real time with windows and can be read and written directly. Category 5: Use winiso to make common files into an iso cd image, which can be accessed by Linux after being mounted to VMware.
