First, what is Open-vm-tools, why to install this thing
Have played VM all know, in order to facilitate the transfer of virtual machine and physical machine things convenient, the VM will recommend you install a thing called Vm-tools, then you can directly
In your physical machine above the choice of things, copy, in the virtual machine paste on the line, Gray often convenient, but placed on the Kali, will often encounter the installation of VMware Tools No
The installation succeeded, but still failed to drag, copy, and cut files. Installing Open-vm-tools instead of VM tools works perfectly
Implement "Auto-fit Client" (that is, automatically adapt to the client's resolution, arbitrarily change the window size), and the host file with the copy and paste function.
Simply put: Kali install Open-vm-tools for virtual machine interaction
Ii. Source of Exchange
Open terminal, enter command:
Leafpad/etc/apt/sources.list
You will see that there are a few lines in the inside, but by the # commented out, that is the source of the system installation, too old, to update
= = = Content in the middle (now no copy function, only hand-hit) added to the sources.list
Warning ahead, there is a pit, most of the source may not be stable, will prompt the mirror in the synchronization or directly say that the connection is not,
Be patient, wait or change the source, I finally changed Ali's, successful
As to what success is like, it's probably the following, (the source of Neusoft University)
Is that the above code is not prompt, ignore, error, etc., all are obtained, a few lines of code is over to indicate that this source is available

Then update the source:
Apt-get Update
Then install Open-vm-tools:
Apt-get Install Open-vm-tools-desktop Fuse
Then reboot takes effect, terminal input:

You can then drag, copy, and cut files.
Ps:
It is recommended to update the software in passing:
Apt-get upgrade, measured more than 900 MB, update the executable command
Apt-get clean clears the downloaded package
