The open-vm-tools are available here:
http://people.centos.org/~hughesjr/open-vm-tools/
The purpose of these RPMS (open-vm-tools) is to replace the VMware-Tools
RPMS that come with VMWare.
Please remove VMWare-Tools inside the VM if you are going to install
these open-vm-tools for testing.
Thank you for these.
May I ask the costs and benefits? Following are my guesses and hopes:
My Guesses:
Benefits:
Easier to install, just toss into repo and yum install NAME
Costs:
None
My Hopes:
Benefits:
Easier to install, will be in CentOS repo with vm kernels
No need to run vmware-config-tools.pl after kernel upgrade
Time syncing is somehow better
Johnny will personally help you with all your computer problems (just
kidding)
Costs:
None

John Thomas
