I have a python script on my host machine which is trying to run another script in the guest machine. I also want the script on host to feed the script on guest with a number.
On host machine:
args = shlex.split("vmrun -gu root -gp mohsen77 runProgramInGuest F:/Attacker/Ubuntu1110.vmx /usr/bin/python /home/srastega/Attacker")
Attacker = subprocess.Popen(args, stdin=PIPE, stderr=STDOUT, stdout=PIPE)
out, err = Attacker.communicate("1\n")
exitcode = Attacker.returncode
On guest machine:
n= int(raw_input("Value for n:"))
t = open('/home/srastega/test', 'a')
t.write("%s"%str(n))
Unfortunately, Guest program exited with non-zero exit code:1 (the error seen on host machine). But, if I try these two scripts in one machine the communication is working properly and the first script passes number "1" to the second script which writes that number into a file.
Any idea how to interact between host and guest machine? Thanks, Samaneh
