linux下安装vmtools方法

长期有关注网络安全博客的朋友应该有发现，最近网络安全博客里涉及linux的文章多了。呵呵，向前一篇提升liunx安全的几种方法文章就有介绍了关于linux下提升安全系数的方法。今天在虚拟机中想上网，整了半天，竟然有人跟我说是没有安装VMTOOLS的原因。以前在Ubuntu下是没有安装也能上。不过为了上网死马当活马医了。弄了篇LINUX 虚拟机上安装vmtools的文章。希望大家会喜欢。

首先启动VM_Linux系统 启动后 在虚拟机菜单栏点“虚拟机” 然后点“安装VMware Tools” 然后虚拟机会加载CD-ROM…有.TAR文件 也有RPM文件，我选择了.TAR文件（看网上的文章说兼容效果能好点），
我是对其进行双击解压的，将解压文件放在了/root的目录下面，然后新建终端，进入解压后的目录（即：/root/vmware-tools-distrib），输入 ./文件名.pl（“/”前面有个小点），之后回车，我第一次好象没有安装成功，出现了如下的结果：
[root@localhost root]# cd vmware-tools-distrib
[root@localhost vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl
Creating a new VMware Tools installer database using the tar4 format.

Installing VMware Tools. This may take from several minutes to over an hour
depending upon its size.

In which directory do you want to install the binary files?
[/usr/bin]

What is the directory that contains the init directories (rc0.d/ to rc6.d/)?
[/etc/rc.d]

What is the directory that contains the init scripts?
[/etc/rc.d/init.d]

In which directory do you want to install the daemon files?
[/usr/sbin]

In which directory do you want to install the library files?
[/usr/lib/vmware-tools]

The path “/usr/lib/vmware-tools” does not exist currently. This program is
going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you want?
[yes]
yes
Execution aborted.

然后我重新启动了一下虚拟机，重新操作了一遍，这一次成功了，出现了如下的结果：
[root@localhost root]# cd vmware-tools-distrib
[root@localhost vmware-tools-distrib]# ./vmware-install.pl
A previous installation of VMware Tools has been detected.

The previous installation was made by the tar installer (version 4).
