Can't Install Parallels Tools

BennyG1 said:
Same issue here, Parallels 13 and Kali 2017.3

Edit:
Fixed using the below modified from another thread:

ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.0-kali1-common/include/linux /lib/modules/4.14.0-kali-amd64/build/include
Click to expand...
This worked for me but I had to tweak it to:

ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.0-kali3-common/include/linux /lib/modules/4.14.0-kali3-amd64/build/include

After that ran ./install from the copied directory per the parallels instruction (don't forget it work work running from the CD have to copy it over first) and everything installed perfectly.
 
Do the following to fix this error for anyone who is still having it. Kali posted an update on Twitter. A key is needed to be able to reach their repositorys.
gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 7D8D0BF6
gpg -a --export 7D8D0BF6 | apt-key add -
apt update (if you receive an error here it is because the below command needs to be entered
wget -q -O - https://archive.kali.org/archive-key.asc | apt-key add
