In case someone would like to set up the own pentest lab we can do something by using VMWare Player.
That is what we are going to do in this tutorial (how to download, install and remove VMWare player with BackBox) :
If you are using BackBox with VMWare Workstation, you will need to install the last version of VMWare Tools.
How to install last version of VMWare Tools
Open a terminal and perform the following :
sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools open-vm-toolbox
You won't be able to install VMWare Player without these tools.
So, let go with VMWare download/installation process...
To download the last version follow the instruction given by visiting below link :
https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/free#desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_player/5_0NOTE: You will need to create an account if you don't have one, then you can download last version and run install script.
Once we are done with downloading then lets run the installation script, to do that, open a terminal and type as follow :
sudo bash ./<vmware_player_version>.bundle
You will be able to view the installation screen in progress and once it has finished, you can go through the main menu of Backbox, then select VMWare player and run.
We are done with installation of VMWare...
