I use windows server 2008r2 with role Hyper-V. The guest system is Ubuntu 12.04 LTC. There is local network between Ubuntu and other machines.
Sometimes I need copy-paste text between OS windows server 2008r2 and guest OS Ubuntu. Today I use WinSCP for this purpose. It is not convenient (first of all, I create file; secondly copy text; then browse this file).
What is the most suitable way to copy-paste text between host and guest OS Ubuntu?
Can’t you use the clipboard? Most VM software has a shared-clipboard functionality, and both Windows and Ubutnu have clipboards, so it should be able to support cross-system copy/paste. Check the settings for the guest OS and there should be a setting to enable a shared clipboard. – Synetech – 2013-11-15T17:37:56.667
no, there is not clipboard( – AmShegar – 2013-11-18T07:41:35.520
Wow, that’s annoying. VMWare, VirtualPC, VirtualBox, etc. all support clipboard integration. Why would Hyper-V (a Microsoft product related to VirtualPC) not support it? Tsk tsk. ಠ_ಠ – Synetech – 2013-11-18T16:01:57.913
Sadness( But you can emulate "mouse integration" if you will use tightVNC. http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/how-do-i-run-a-remote-linux-desktop-in-windows/
