Installing VMWare Player in Kali (Host)

This is for the installation of vmware player in Kali not how to install a virtual instance of kali. For this example I am using the 64bit version of Kali:

1. Download the vmware player from:

https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/login

2. Once downloaded open a terminal and navigate to the directory where the bundle was saved. Enterthe following command to make it executable:

chmod +x VMware-Player-5.0.2-1031769.x86_64.bundle <—- The name of the file you downloaded.

3. In the same terminal run the following command to install the packages needed by the vmware player installer:

apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`

4. To start the graphical installer enter the following:

./VMware-Player-5.0.2-1031769.x86_64.bundle <—– The name of the file you downloaded

Follow the prompts from here, pretty straight forward installer
Once the install is completed it can be found in \Applications\System T
