"Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures"

Welcome to the Red Hat Linux Graphical User Interface
(GUI ??” pronounced gooey).
9. If for any reason Red Hat startx does not start X Windows, type the
following command.
*Note: Remember that all of Linux is case sensitive.
redhat-config-xfree86
or
redhat-config-display
If you are still having difficulties you will need to consult either the owner??™s
manual or Red Hat support, or search on the Internet by typing in the exact
error message you are receiving between quotes.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Red Hat Linux version 9
and VMware Tools!
*Note: The biggest change you will immediately notice after installing VMware Tools
is the colors will appear clearer. You may also notice that the virtual machine
window actually becomes larger. Of course this new virtual machine is not
secure as it has no updates installed on it.
60  Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures
What Is on the CD?
The first item I wanted to include was a current version of the VMware Workstation
30-day demonstration software. At the time of this writing I am still waiting
on VMware for written approval to include this on the CD. If the software is
not on the CD then I did not receive it in time; however, you can still download
the software from http://www.vmware.com/download/ws.
Otherwise, all the tools freely available from the Internet that are demonstrated
in this book are included on the CD. It will be the reader??™s responsibility
to provide the operating systems for the virtual machines they wish to install.
