• How to share files on the isolated virtual machine?

  I cloned a VM of production for some tests, so I don't want to connect it to our production network to avoid any conflict of IP etc. In this case, how can I transfer files between my PC and the cloned VM?

  The VMtools has a shared folder, but it doesn't seem to work in ESX or ESXi. The only method I can think, at least for the transfer of files in this virtual machine is to convert the ISO on my PC folder so that I can connect as a virtual disk drive in the virtual machine. Are there other methods better to do this?

  Hello

  There are several ways to move forward and keep a 100% isolated virtual machine...

  (1) marks a new connected to the VM source using hotadd VMDK. Place the data to be transferred to this new VMDK. Remove the VMDK and remove the source of the VM (hotremove or power down, change the config and startup). Once disassembled/not done part of source VMDK, attach the VMDK to the target VM and transfer files

  (2) use the suggested ISO/FLP method.

  Or the other method could perhaps transfer viruses, etc. Not sure why you want to isolate, but do not consider this possibility, if the source files are infected, then the target is infected as well.

  (3) transfer the data via serial port connections. You can make a VM endpoint for anotehr VM setup of serial port devices.

  (4) mount a USB device in the source of the VM. Transfer the files. Dismount and mount the USB key to the target VM.

  (5) place the target VM on a private vSwitch (no connection to Teddy). Create a router/firewall VM and place it on the private vSwitch AND your normal network. Transfer the files through this device of firewall to the target VM. Make sure that the firewall is configured to NOT allow anything but the Protocol selected to cross. Proposed Protocol isn't ONLY SCP, no CIFS, FTP, etc... SCP is the safest to use.

  The last of them will require that you trust your virtual firewall and that it is configured in such a way that anything on the private vSwitch cannot communicate with the outside world and that only the transfer of a file protocol is allowed. (or you can also allow RDP/VNC as requires it).

  Many ways to reach this solution, but they all depend on HOW you want things to be isolated.

  all my data records on the local disk c, how to share the data with the other drive, local drive d.

  Hi Jasonbichard,

  1. what type of drive is D? Is - this another partition on the same disk?

  2 Windows operating system you are using?

  You can change the location of the disk to save the data in the d: instead of C: and check if it helps.

  a. navigate to the location (username) C:\Users\.
  b. right click on the folder that you want to change the location, and then select Properties.
  c. click on the location tab and change the location to D: drive.

  d. click on apply and Ok.

• How to share an app with preflight 2015?

  How to share an app with preflight 2015?

  All that you would like to share an application through preflight must be a 'user' on the project for that application. Thus, you can add a user who may not have 'view' permission, but as long as their Adobe ID is part of this project, this app will appear in their preflight application when connected with their Adobe ID

  Basically, preflighting is associated with the Adobe ID. the user any project is associated with an ID Adobe ID will appear when this Adobe ID is registered to control upstream.

  Hope that helps!

• How the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines as well as the internet should work on a virtual machine

  Hi team,

  I ask that you forgive for asking a silly question without doing a free search.

  I'm using VMware workstation 6.5. I am able to communicate with both machines by selecting 'only option of home. "

  Is there a way by which the physical machine can communicate with the virtual machines.

  At the same time through the VMS, is it possible to access the Internet from the physical amchine.

  Help, please.

  Concerning

  Sriapti

  When you use a bridged vNIC the customer acts as any other host, so that you can access is by his IP (or name if a DNS configuration exists as you acceding to any other host.) What tools you can use depends on the guest operating system and the software available.

  I assume you mean access deskopt. Then you can use RDP (Windows Terminal services) or VNC (tight/tiny).

  For Linux, you can use this last or all the flavors of SSH. In the case of Linux, I use VNC through SSH tunnel. You can also tunnel X through SSH, so if you have an X server on another host (such as the Hummingbird for Windows), you can open your own office remotely there.

• How to install VMplayer 3 network for virtual machines to comminicate with each other?

  People,

  Hello. I use VMPlayer 3.

  SE host: Windows 7
  Comments to: Windows XP and Oracle Linux 5

  I need to set up the network and activate Windows XP communicate with Oracle Linux 5.

  I followed this tutorial http://www.vmware.com/support/ws5/doc/ws_devices_serial_2vms.html to configure 2 virtual machines in Windows 7 host machine.

  I tried to test 2 virtual machines in the way as below:

  In Linux, [user@localhost ~] $ping WindowsXP_HostName
  Release: Unknown host WindowsXP_HostName

  
  At the Windows XP command prompt:
  C:\ping localhost.localdomain
  Its release: ping localhost 127.0.0.1 with 32 bytes of data...
  Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes = 32 time = 2ms TTL = 128

  
  He meets a few times and then disconnected by itself. It seems that Windows XP is ping itself and not Linux server. The host name of the Linux server is 'localhost' as well. It is a kind of confusion for me.

  
  From the information above, we can see that 2 VMs cannot connect between them.

  Can any folk provides a tutorial or example or case study to set VMPlayer 3 allowing 2 virtual machines communicate with each other by step?

  Very grateful in advance.

  In the guest machine, all I see is click on VMplayer-> VM-> settings-> network-> Network adapter Connection-> select Bridged: directly connected to the physical network. After that, nothing to keep.

  That's it for the network card in Virtual Machine of its parameters, and the rest is done to each guest at the guest OS level.

  In Windows 7 host machine, I don't see anything first.

  What we need to do is to assign 3 IP addresses to 3 machines: Win 7, Win XP Guest and Linux host.

  Why the world can't bring you up Google in a browser and type, the ip static windows xp, then static ip rhea of windows 7 and finally static ip.  As I have already said there are more then enough tutorials on the Internet about how to configure a static IP address by a given operating system then I suggest you Google it!  It makes absolutely no sense to write the instructions step by step for you when there are already dozens of tutorials available on the internet.

• Anyone scan successfully with scanners usb with a virtual office

  We do a deployment view 4.5.  Our problem is the usb scanners.  If they are connected to one zero client/thin client or a repurposed desktop computer, scanning usb causes the virtual office to disconnect randomly.  I work with vmware on it.  I'm not having bandwidth problems, I already have that ruled out.  I need to know if anyone successfully done this and if yes what scanners do you use?  We use fujitsu scan snap s1500.  This happens on xp and windows 7 isn't an OS problem.

  We use the software provided with the scanner and they scanning to PDF.    Not many people use it as most of our users to view work remotely.  On a side note, I took the scanner home one day and made my home USB redirection.   It was very slow, but it has worked so far I didn't chance get to work with the customer zero Wyse P20.

• How to share files & folders with other users on the same PC

  We have 2 users on our PC I can find how to 'share' on a network, but not on the same PC (I'm a user 'low tech') all the headings of 'aid' seemed to refer to a network of more than 1 PC

  Files/folders that you want to share between users on the same machine should be placed in the Public, C:\Users\Public directory. That is what concerns the Public directory. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• How to add a physical DVD to be used with a virtual machine?

  Add Virtual Machine Hardware Settings > hard drive > use a physical disk (for advanced users)

  He is not present to do the same for the addition of a CD/DVD drive. Is it possible to do this to CD/DVD using the .vmx file or another way!

  Hello

  Hmm... I see that you are the person who has earlier posted on attempts to seek support for trying to create a virtual machine that is able to recover from broken CD/DVD.

  I'm sorry, but personally I don't think that virtual machines are the best match for this.

  If you want physical access to a CD/DVD drive then you can try to use an external USB CD/DVD drive and that connect directly to the virtual machine, but I don't think that you can configure a Raw Device Mapping (RDM) for a CD/DVD drive. I could be wrong on that though.
