All linux distros (but most especially Debian and Ubuntu) need to do a much better job writing initialization scripts (something the generic open-vm-tools package on SourceForge intentionally does not provide). Perhaps package maintainers should actually read the OpenVM Packaging wiki before making packages ;-) You are probably encountering a timing issue by using fstab. The open-vm script in /etc/init.d has probably not yet loaded the vmhgfs module. Most people just put the hgfs mount command somewhere in the script after 'modprobe vmhgfs'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
