The local IP address using the ifconfig command. In the image I’ve circled the local IP address that is assigned to the instance. The ifconfig command shows a lot of information regarding the network configuration associated with the various network adapters in the machine that it is executed on. Once that’s installed I pull up my IP address with ifconfig. Sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client Once the image is installed, login and install openssh-server and openssh-client. But either way, get one built and running. There are a million other options to do this too, such as starting with a clean Ubuntu image using Vagrant, which takes all of about 1-2 minutes, sometimes a bit more if you have to download the image. That will take a few minutes to install, on machines these days I’ve experience just about 8-15 minutes. These are the steps to get that installed and ready to go.įirst install the image, in this particular situation I’m using the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server image. Often I’ll start with a base server image which isn’t entirely setup for SSHing into the instance. Often that instance happens to be a local VM running in VMware Fusion (or sometimes Virtual Box). In order to do this, our VM needs to have access to the internet to be able to download the packages from the configured repositories.I do a lot of work with Ubuntu, 90% or so of that work is from an Ubuntu instance. In the following steps, we will install open-vm-tools for Ubuntu from the command line. More recently, VMware has been encouraging Operating System vendors and communities to develop their own version of the VMware tools, which are known as the “open-vm-tools.” The VMware Tools (VMware ISO) installations for most Operating Systems are now described as “deprecated”. In the “Old Days,” the norm was to mount an ISO provided by VMware and install their version of the VMware Tools. Most every Virtual Machine needs to have some sort of VMware Tools running.
