Copy between host and guest

I'm a student at a Uni and I'm currently learning the basics about Windows Server Domain Controllers.
One of the assignments required us to use a excel spreadsheet file to setup users in the domain, I tried copying this file from my host to the virtual machine but I couldn't do this(I also tried drag and drop).
Additionally I can't copy text trough the clipboard in and out of the VM. (the only options that work are the ones from the clipboard menu item; type clipboard text and capture screen)
My teacher told me this should be possible by enabling the integration services, but I had already done so.
Both the VM and the host system run on Windows Server 2012 R2 with the latest updates.
My teacher didn't know why I couldn't do this since according to him it should be possible with Hyper-V on server 2012 R2.
I should mention that I was connected trough remote desktop with the host system(which is a server at OVH), I was able to copy and paste trough the RDP session between my client and the host, but not to the VM's.
2.
I believe the virtual machine connection also uses the RDP protcol, so I'd like to know if its possible to connect to the virtual machine directly trough RDP (without having the virtual machine attached to the internet)
3.
I saw that there are some settings in the device manager for the network adapter, but I couldn't find out what forwarding optimization is supposed to do and I was also wondering if this setting can be configured on a Linux virtual machine (and if there are
any other network optimization settings for Linux, which I can configure)

Hi Sir,
>>I tried copying this file from my host to the virtual machine but I couldn't do this(I also tried drag and drop).
If you want to use copy/past between that VM and host , you may need to enable "enhanced session" mode (only win 8.1 and 2012R2 ) :
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn282274.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
How to enable it please refer to this article:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2013/10/18/windows-8-1-windows-server-2012-r2-vmconnect-enhanced-mode-rdp-over-vmbus.aspx
Also , you can click here on that 2012R2 VM conneciton :
In addition I saw that "Guest Services" was enabled , you can use command copy-vmfile to transfer file from host to VM :
Copy-VMFile -Name scvmm2012r2 -SourcePath c:\test.txt -DestinationPath c:\test.txt -FileSource Host

  • Networking between host and qemu imag for telnet

    Hello.
    I want to start doing test and learning a bit about networking.
    But I only have a computer, and it doesn't have even hardware emulation, making the use of any modern distro as a virtual machine painfuly slow.
    So I downloaded a floppy distro.. and I manage to get a virtual network card working. But there is no ping between host and guest. I  can't Telnet neither, of course.
    Qemu man page and google are confusing me a lot. It speack of redirecting ports.. no solution to that
    I don t have firewall, as I don't have Internet at home.
    What can i do now? :S
    Thanks in advance

    I think I must stop drinking so much cofee on the afternoon, lol
    Thank you very much for adding my reply!

    Obviously, you did inadvertently use the "Report" button to submit this.
    But don't worry, this happens quite often.
    I tough a bit about the problem, and followed the steps on the Gentoo Wiki for sharing a conection between two guests, and I found the same problem, but with the vbe module being unabaible. After a bit of rage, I realized two possible workarounds:
    First thing, is that I compile my kernel. As I don't have KVM or Hardware emulation, I just don't compile any virtual machine module, to save memory. BUT, I do have the /dev/net/tun device who qemu can't recognice (yes, I tried to run qemu as root), so It seems that it is compiled after all
    The second thing, is that I also stripped the daemons and services at bootup, as I don't have Internet, or othercomputers, I don't need most of them. Between the services I don't start at bootup is the netwprk daemon... but if i try to start it, all it does is delay the bootup for almost 2 minutes looking for a network :S
    So, I'll just copy my /etc/rc.conf, where I just did the changes of the wiki. Maybe I did something wrong, maybe I lack something.
    Any help will be must appreciated

  • [vmware] Best way to share files between host and client

    Good afternoon!
    I have successfully installed VMware server on my machine and set up a virtual machine, powering Windows XP for study issues (emulation via wine does not do the trick for me). The virtual machine runs fast and stable but does not meet my requirements unless I have two issues faced:
    First:
    How to access a USB pendrive monunted by the host system properly within the client?
    Second:
    What is the best way to share file system space between host and client? Should I set up a Samba share which is accessible for both host and client or is it save to grant my VM access to my physical hard disc as a whole (using it as a partition)?
    Thanks for answers in advance, I have still quite a lot to learn, when it comes to VMs.
    Regards,
    ~cg

    Do not setup your VMware to be able to access your physical disk as a whole. This would have you mounting the filesystem twice, corrupting it in the process.
    You /can/ setup VMware with Sharing Folders that lets you share your filesystem (either / or just /home or something else) and that is what I would recommend.
    As for accessing the pen drive from both operating systems at once, I'd say use the same Sharing Folders method. I always share /mnt so that I can access my cdrom/USB/etc from the vmware OS.
    The sharing folders is basically the same as a samba share, but uses vmware's own method (HGFS). Samba is more secure (if you are worried about your VMware OS breaking from it's shell and attacking your real filesystem, which is unlikely). You need the vmware tools installed to make use of it.

  • Can't copy between Classic and OS X

    Hi,
    i carbon copied a OS 10.4 installation to a new disk, then copied an os 9 folder to that same disk in the root directory. Now i get an error message that i can't copy between classic and os x, an error message that keeps on appearing.
    Both the os x.4 and the classic version worked before on that same mac, but on different disks... any chance why this won't work anymore??
    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi Peter. Welcome to the Forum…
    Please give the exact wording of the error message, and a brief description of the circumstances.
    How many disks were involved in copying OS 10.4 to a new disk, please? It can work but it's not reliable to clone from the boot volume, so you should really do that only with a third disk to boot from…
    Are there no other symptoms? Everything but copying works fine?

  • Current best practice for Time service settings for Hyper-V 2012 R2 Host and guest OS's

    I am trying to find out what the current best practice is for Time service settings in a Hyper-V 2012 environment. I find conflicting information. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I have found some different sources (links below) but again the
    are not consistent. Thanks
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2010/11/19/time-synchronization-in-hyper-v.aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/virtual_active_directory_domain_controller_virtualization_hyperv(v=ws.10).aspx
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/12709.time-services-for-a-domain-controller-on-hyper-v.aspx

    From the first link provided by Brian, it does state that the time service should be off, but then the update changes that statement.  Still best to rely on the first link in the OP - it was written by the guy that has been responsible for much of what
    gets coded into Hyper-V, starting from before there ever was a Hyper-V.  I'd say that's a pretty reliable source. 
    Time service
    For virtual machines that are configured as domain controllers, it is recommended that you disable time synchronization between the host system and guest operating system acting as a domain controller. This enables your guest domain controller to synchronize
    time from the domain hierarchy.
    To disable the Hyper-V time synchronization provider, shut down the VM and clear the Time synchronization check box under Integration Services.
    Note
    This guidance has been recently updated to reflect the current recommendation to synchronize time for the guest domain controller from only the domain hierarchy, rather than the previous recommendation to partially disable time synchronization between the
    host system and guest domain controller.

  • [QEMU/KVM] Use KVM switch to switch mouse/kayboard between host and VM

    I finally have my QEMU/KVM setup running and working as I want it, except for one thing. I have a KVM switch (a piece of hardware not the hypervisor ) to switch audio and video. It also offers the feature to switch mouse/keyboard between to Computers. Here is the relevant excerpt from my lsusb:
    Bus 002 Device 048: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
    Bus 002 Device 047: ID 0557:8021 ATEN International Co., Ltd CS1764A [CubiQ DVI KVMP Switch]
    Bus 002 Device 046: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
    Bus 002 Device 045: ID 0557:8021 ATEN International Co., Ltd CS1764A [CubiQ DVI KVMP Switch]
    The device named "Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver" is the dongle for my mouse and keyboard. The first problem is that both devices (in both states of the switch they both appear) have the same device id 046d:c52b. This can be solved by telling qemu to identify the device by #bus.#device instead of the id. The problem is that after each switching the device number increases. This makes sense as for the system the switching process is as if the device was unplugged and plugged in in a different usb port. Therefore the device would probably be disconnected from the VM when it was assigned on the VM's startup (is there a way to add usb devices on the fly to a vm without typing an add_usb command in the qemu shell). Do you have any ideas what I could do?
    EDIT: Just found about QMP. Would it be possible to save an initial condition (mouse/keyboard is on host) and fetch new devices busses after switching (udev?) and switch the saved sate? If the state is now "m/k should be on the vm" one could send qemu an adequate add command.
    EDIT2: I found out that my mainboard's usb is organized using 3 usb controllers (2x2.0, 1x3.0 each with 4 ports). I want to pass one of those PCI controllers to the VM but all I get is a black screen.
    EDIT3: I tried the other usb controller and it worked. Well, kind of. I moved the mouse in a circle and made a right click. Than I was not able to use the mouse or the keyboard anymore. Should I consider buying a PCI USB2.0 controller as that might be easier to forward?
    Last edited by fkoehler (2015-04-29 23:50:07)

    This article has someinteresting information in the comments. You don't have to use a kvm switch neccessarily. I for one prefer a software solution.
    Okay, so to make things clear: I do not switch keyboard/mouse. I keep them shared between both OS, using Synergy. The host OS runs a web server, and the guest OS runs a client – they exchange mouse position information, so that at any time only one of them receives ‘clicks’. This is great for both multi- and single-monitor setups.
    Another story is that I have two video outputs connected to a single monitor, and I would like to switch between them without using the buttons on the monitor itself. For this, I use the I2C that is embedded within HDMI or DP.
    Almost all monitors support DDC, but there are scarce apps that can make us of it. There is DDCcontrol for linux, but it is completely outdated, and failed to work with my particular monitor. So I ended up getting to know the VESA DDC standard, reading the source of that tool and several similar ones, and created a simple C program (source) that works in case of my setup. Most likely it will not work elsewhere, but it should give you a nice starting point for communicating with the monitor. The fragile spots are line 41 – you may need to change the i2c bus number the the one correct for your system, and you may need to prepare other data to send to the monitor (68 and 71) if you want to switch between other outputs than I do. Refer to the standard in order to prepare them.
    As for how to change his source code to help you, I am not of much help right now as I do not know the DDC protocol. Hope that helps.

  • Webauth url redirection fail with firewall between host and switch

    Hi All,
    I noticed some old posts (2012) on this specific issue (thanks Tarik) - this is exactly our problem.  Web auth redirect URL gets dropped if stateful firewall is between webauth host and switch management interface.  Aaron at Cisco live london kinda hinted about maybe Cisco working on this ?  We can't disable stateful inspection
    Is there any other solutions or workarounds ?
    "Although this approach introduces additional hops in the return path from the switch to the host, it produces negligible load on the default router and intervening infrastructure since only the WebAuth traffic from the switch to the host follows this path. In campus designs that do not use SVIs on the data VLAN,6 a default route is typically already configured. In this case, no additional configuration is required to support WebAuth. However, problems may arise in the case in which traffic to the default router is bridged through a stateful firewall. The original SYN packet in the TCP handshake is consumed by the access switch, so the first packet that the firewall sees is the SYN-ACK packet from the access switch. Stateful firewalls typically drop SYN-ACK packets if they have not seen the original SYN packet.
    In this case, you will need to turn off stateful inspection for ports 80 and 443 on the firewall."
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps6537/ps6586/ps6638/app_note_c27-577494.html
    Cheers
    Peter.                

    There is  workaround i haven't tested which is available from 15.0 i think, which is the option to create svi's on your access layer switches for the guest/user vlans, without actually enabling routing between them, it sounds weird, but i have been told that this combined is a possible woraround, that will cause the switch to use the svi interfaces when responding with the SYN-ACK, thus not being sent to its ip default-gateway.

  • How do I correct version conflicts between host and RT engine?

    I was running LabVIEW RT7.0 on a host PC (WinXP) and PXI-8145 system. I installed LV7.1 and LVRT7.1 on the host. However, the software versions in MAX still report as 7.0
    I would like to upgrade to 7.1 on my 8145-RT. I cannot run 7.1 on the host and target the 7.0 RT engine (results in version conflict). Version 7.0 is installed on C:, but 7.1 is installed on D: due to space.
    How can I get MAX to recognize my latest version (which should allow my to download it to the PXI)?
    Thanks.
    Laine

    Thank you for the response.
    C:\RT Images contains only a single folder for NI-PAL
    However, I backed it up and copied the RT Images folder from D:, but still the same effect (MAX thinks 7.0 is the latest LabVIEW version).
    D:\RT Images\LabVIEW\7.0 contains subfolders and install scripts (e.g., 7002.rts)
    D:\RT Images\LabVIEW\7.1 contains subfolders but no install scripts. Also, there are many fewer files in these subfolders than in the 7.0 folder. I'm worried about trying to manually install from the 7.1 folder.
    Any other suggestions? Thanks.

  • CSMARS reporting ICMP traffic between hosts and Exchange Server

    We recently added a CSMARS box to our infrastructure so it could correlate and report on our 4260's alerts. I've noticed that CSMARS is reporting on ICMP's from multiple hosts within our network sending ICMP packets to our Exchange server. The total amounts of packets are between 15 and 30 and then the ICMP's from the specific clients stop.
    I know that Windows XP clients will send ICMP traffic to domain controllers in order to test connectivity and I'm wondering if we're seeing the same occurrence with our Exchange clients.
    Thanks,
    Javier

    Hi, the signature that is firing is ICMP Flood
    Signature ID: 2152/0. According to Cisco's site this signature should not fire under normal circumstances. However, when we first setup the IPS sensor it would deny all vpn users' access to our exchange server as the Win Nuke signature kept firing. Of course this was a false positive.
    However, once I tweaked the CSMARS rule a bit the noise calmed down and it reported on two hosts that were trying to send ICMP floods to Google.

  • VMWare Host and Guest Shutdown Sequence

    I have 2 hosts with various guests dispersed between the two. Is there a way to set the priority of which host starts the process to shut down first? Say I want to have Host2 powered off first since it holds the second DC and have it power up in the reverse order with Host1 powering itself and the guests on first when power is restored. The Guest OS sequence is fine on each host. Maybe I am overthinking this as well.
    The UPS running the rack is a TrippLite with and SNMPWEB card in it. I haven't set up the PowerAlert software yet.
    This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

    Is this a Windows issue?
    If the local (host) machine ip is added to the Windows hosts file with the name home it will NOT resolve.
