Reposting from yesterday:

Haven't tried this with CentOS, but for the newer Ubuntu releases seems
you have to use the new open-vmware tools (source).    Give this
a try, if you can figure out the dependent packages required in CentOS.


See:

I've not tried... what benefits do you expect to see from installing the tools?
Well,  the vmxnet ethernet driver is much faster.
Also the host can shut down the guest before it shuts down if required.

Subject: [Efw-user] VMware Tools




Has anyone had any success getting this installed for Endian?  I have 2.2 R3
running in VMware Server 1.0.8 and it runs well, however I'd like to get
VMware Tools installed.

Thanks
