The open-vm-tools project only provides source code. The source is roughly the same for all platforms. The configure scripts take care of the differences. > Is this true?

But you only get the binaries, which are obviously platform-specific. > Is there a download page for precompiled versions for e.g. Solaris 11? We don't distribute open-vm-tools binaries. You have to check with the distros for that. I don't think Oracle has packaged o-v-t for Solaris 11, but you may be lucky and find some package for OpenSolaris (not that I know of any). -- - Marcelo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Systems Optimization Self Assessment Improve efficiency and utilization of IT resources.
