But my auto fit guest (screen size) cut & paste drag/drop etc still DON'T WORK.
So now shared folded (hgfs) partially works (showing /mnt/hgfs/ but can not access with error msg "Transport endpoint is not connected"). Only having the basic the basic package covers only sync of system time, and passing system status info and power state commands (on/off/reset/suspend) and auto grab / release of mouse cursor only. Seems that reason being open vm tools separated their vmware tools into 2 packages and only the basic one is by default installed in tails 3.5 ISO,
Sync time tails install#
Sudo apt-get update -y & sudo apt-get -noinstall-remommends install -y open-vm-tools-desktop Now I managed to get it partially working after additional installation of package open-vm-tools-desktop I am suspecting the Tails 3.5 had vmware tools install unsuccessfully, due to this I am rather baffled why vmware tools don't run in this, and rather virtualbox guest utility seems to be running. However there is a file /var/logvmware-vmsvc.log which does not contain a single error, it seemed happy and showed some plugins initialized. Searched around the /var/log and seems this tails made syslog vanished for security reason or something. Trying to reinstall vmware tools by the usual ways, hit snag that 'ifconfig' does not exist, and apt-get install -y nets-tools says package is missing / obsolute usr/bin/ is not there at all, there are the other vmware stuffs however. Strange enough seems that virtualbox-guest-utils seems to be running: I verified it has VMware Tools version 10.2 inside the live ISO itself, I merely boot it up.
This VM is newly setup, Live CD from ISO. Tried these already, and not successful this time. In many previous cases reinstalling vmware tools or run will fix it.
