Since DynFi can be run as a vm in ESXi according to this:https://dynfi.com/documentations/dynfi- ... _ESXi.html

How do you install VMware tools in the vm?
VMware tools is necessary for smooth operation of the vm.

Hi,

You have package in System > Firmware > Packages : open-vm-tools-nox11

I also need to add

Code: Select all

vmware_guestd_enable="YES"
in /etc/rc.conf if vmware don't see the VM tools after reboot.

Best

Yes, thanks @Rom1 for the reply.
We still need to work on adding a GUI to enable / disable the VMware tools directly.

Not a big effort, but we still have to do it…
