Installing TeamViewer 9 in Kali Linux (Debian)
TeamViewer is nowadays most preferred remote desktop connection client. It is a product of TeamViewer company and is provided for commercial and non commercial purposes.
For daily personal use a non-commercial (free) license serves the purpose and most people are currently using it to help their buddies when stuck in a certain task.
As we appreciate the fact people are becoming frequent users of open source Operating Systems - Kali Linux included, most people would like their systems to do what the other Proprietary software can do.
Most proprietary software provide a straight forward way of installing programs for obvious reasons; to make it user friendly and escalate it to more sales. On my view this has made people too lazy to think about what happens on the background of the installation process. Hence, "people can't think beyond the Graphics"
Kali Linux for newbies can provide the graphical installation of programs but most of the programs fail to install for obvious reasons "Newbies forget a superuser installs programs"
To get your TeamViewer program up and running in your Debian flavor of Linux, simple commands are required to install it. These are straight forward and do not necessarily require your intervention.
Open the Terminal on your left upper conner or go to Applications then Accessories. In the terminal copy and paste the following commands as they appear;
please not that this installation has been tried in 32 bit Kali Linux
dpkg
--add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
wget
http://www.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_linux.deb
sudo dpkg
-i teamviewer_linux.deb
sudo apt-get install -f
dpkg
--add-architecture i386
prepares the installation for a 32 bit installtion but in event its
already configured it has a little impact.
sudo
apt-get update
gets the latest software upgrades from the OS developers.
wget
http://www.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_Linux.deb
connects to the server that hosts the application and downloads it
from the server. The application is downloaded to the Home folder.
sudo
dpkg -i teamviewer_Linux.deb
is th installation command that installs the application from the
downloaded folder.
sudo
apt-get install -f
checks the application that may be installed together with the
applications and not required for the appplication
