Centos WM and windows directories sharing

Post by cyrduf » 2014/11/09 11:42:54

Hi,

>> Is anyone can help me for my problem ?

I have a problem with sharing directories (Windows 7) into /mnt/hgfs/:

I installed WMware-tools on centos VM (v 8.8.1)
I configure shared directories in VMware virtual machine options

But when I launch "ls /mnt/hgfs/" the result is empty.

The same things with a 5.8 centos version is ok.

What must I do to see windows directories with Centos 6.5 VM ?

Regards
Cyril

Bonjour,
De part me propres recherches j'ai trouvé le souci : en fait cela est dû au fait d'intaller la version 9 de VM ware tools => une install d'un version 8 de VM ware tools sur un VMware 4.0.1 à résolu mon problème.

Google Translate tells me --
hello,
Share own research I found my problem: in fact it is because of intaller version 9 VM ware tools => an install of a version 8 VM ware tools on a VMware 4.0.1 solved my problem.
