Btw, this is on OpenBSD 4.4 i386 and VMware Server 2.0
This works no longer with VMWare Server 2.0. With 1.0.8 you were
fine with that method.
Any specific reason why? Did they change the FreeBSD binary too much
or...?
I think that the vmware tools were statically linked in the previous
versions, now they are dynamically linked and I was missing most of
the libs. But I will check that tomorrow when I'm back at work.
So here is the information, it is indeed dynamically linked in the
server 2.0 version:
vmware tools server 2.0:

Hello Markus,
the question is: do you use the vmware-tools from server 2.0 and if you
do so, how did you manage it?
guido
vmware tools server 1.0.8;
$ ls -la /emul/freebsd/sbin/
total 584
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Sep 2 2008 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Dec 17 2007 ..

$ file vmware-guestd
vmware-guestd: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1,

Kind regards,
Markus
