I'm having a hard time with CopyFileFromHostToGuest. If I use local accounts - no problem. Linux guests no problem.
Windows VMs in a domain are a problem. For example
/usr/bin/vmrun -gu Administrator -gp secret CopyFileFromHostToGuest /home/user/test/test.vmx /tmp/putty.exe C:\Temp\putty.exe
only works if Administator is a local account. In this case it's in the WIN2003 domain.
using -gu WIN2003/Administrator fails
using -gu WIN2003\Administrator fails
using -gu WIN2003/\Administrator fails
using -gu WIN2003\/Administrator fails
using -gu "WIN2003/Administrator" fails
using -gu "WIN2003\Administrator" fails
Always with Error: Invalid user name or password for the guest OS
Command line and script results are the same. Putting the user and password in by hand rather then -gu and -gp doesn't help.
How should one pass a domain name to the vmrun guest?
Thanks!
