Vmware server 2.0.2-x with Ubuntu server 10.04 VMware Remote Console Plug-in
Today I will tell you howto setup new box which run Vmware server 2.0.2-x with Ubuntu server 10.04 and VMware Remote Console Plug-in
My box:
CPU: Intel(R) Celeron(R) D CPU 3.06GHz, 1 cores
Memory: 2G
CDrom
Firefox 3.6 can not VMware Remote Console.
At client, I use Chrome to build virtual machines then use VMware Remote Console Plug-in to run them.
We have 4 step:
Step one: Setup new box run Ubuntu server.
Step two: Register, download, patch, install VMware.
Step three: Create virtual machines.
Step four: Remote virtual machines by VMware Remote Console Plug-in from client.
Step one: Setup new box run Ubuntu server:
Very easy. If you don`t know, you look at:
http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-se...nx-ispconfig-3.
After setup, reboot box.
Login and active root account:
Password for root, I choose: 111111
Logout then login with root and later we do everything with root too.
Upgrade box:
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade -y
Install gcc:
Code:
apt-get install -y gcc
Get static for NIC:
Code:
nano /etc/network/interfaces
Delete all and replace with:
Quote:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.75
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1

Edit /etc/resolv.conf:
Code:
nano /etc/resolv.conf
Delete all and replace with:
Reboot box:
Step two: Register, download, patch, install VMware:
Logon with root and create /root/vm:
Code:
mkdir /root/vm
cd /root/vm
To get VMware file, you have to register at:
https://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/?p=server20&lp=1. They will send you email. Follow email, you download and save VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386.tar.gz at /root/vm and remember write down Key VMware Server for Linux (look like: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX)
Untar file VMware:
Code:
tar -xzf VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386.tar.gz
Before install VMware, we have to patch VMware:
Code:
mkdir /root/dev
cd /root/dev

Reboot box:
Step three: Create virtual machines:
At client box, goto
http://www.google.com/chrome/?hl=en, choose the right one then download and install Chrome.
Open Chrome. Type
https://192.168.1.75:8333/ui/# then hit Enter... Click Procced anyway. Picture 1 (

Login name: root
Password: 111111
Picture 2 (
http://picasaweb.google.com/11636672...09360279780690)
Then follow my pictures to create virtual machine (
look at pointer).
This step, some time VMware kick you out. You have to refersh brown, relogon to finish this step.
Step four: Remote virtual machines by VMware Remote Console Plug-in from client:
At server, please open tray, put Ubuntu CD then close tray.
Client box is x86, we do:
Code:
cd /tmp
IP=192.168.1.75:8333 # < fill in esx server ip address here
wget --no-check-certificate https://$IP/ui/plugin/vmware-vmrc-linux-x86.xpi
mv vmware-vmrc-linux-x86.xpi vmware-vmrc-linux-x64.zip
cd ~
mkdir -p bin/vmwareconsole # make directory bin in your own homedir
cd bin/vmwareconsole
unzip /tmp/vmware-vmrc-linux-x86.zip
cd ~/bin
ln -s vmwareconsole/plugins/vmware-vmrc . # make a symlink for easy access
vmware-vmrc # run the console
Client box is x64, we do:
Code:
cd /tmp
IP=192.168.1.75:8333 # < fill in esx server ip address here
wget --no-check-certificate https://$IP/ui/plugin/vmware-vmrc-linux-x64.xpi
mv vmware-vmrc-linux-x64.xpi vmware-vmrc-linux-x64.zip
cd ~
mkdir -p bin/vmwareconsole # make directory bin in your own homedir
cd bin/vmwareconsole
unzip /tmp/vmware-vmrc-linux-x64.zip
cd ~/bin
ln -s vmwareconsole/plugins/vmware-vmrc . # make a symlink for easy access
vmware-vmrc # run the console
