Good morning..

I just used to ssh to the Vmware server and run the "vmware" binary..

    ssh -CY x.x.x.x "vmware"

This method assumes a few things:

 1. You have the X11 environment installed on OS X. I believe this is
default in Snow Leopard.

 2. You're running some form of Linux as your host OS.

 3. You're running Vmware server rather than work station etc...

It can be a little buggy / painful to work with. I actually generally
use either a Windows / Linux desktop running in Vmware Fusion to do
this sort of thing. It's an option for me simply because I generally
have at least one VM running constantly.


Just my 0.02c worth...
