Hello.
I am runningfreebsd FreeBSD 8.2 on vmware workstation 7.1.5. Everything is running fine except I do not know how to get working or configure clipboard access (copy paste) between the host os and guest os. It is not currently working.
The installer for open-vm-tools says to add these lines to /etc/rc.conf:
I have done this with reboot, but still cannot use clipboard between guest and host. What is the solution, if any?
The official maintainer of this port @ open-vm-tools.sourceforge.net does not appear to provide documentation or precise configuration explanation. As far as I know the vmtools officially from vmware was discontinued long ago in favor of open vm tools per a few articles I read a while back.
Oother than clipboard use everything works fine such as mount points, hgfs, and all other features.
