Are you using Virtual Box? This might help:

@Dhruv :Thanks, I will certainly look into virtual box settings, but I am currently using Vmplayer and have looked into Vmplayer settings but I couldn't find any such settings for vmplayer where I can set clipboard to bidirectional. Is there something I am missing.

Hi @ashwin jayrama,

Have you tried https://community.hortonworks.com/content/kbentry/...

This should support copying and pasting text into the console if that was what you are needing.
