Excuse me if I seem dense, but re-download what? The VMware Tools?
That's what I've been doing. You click off the button, it mounts
a DVD, I copy that whole compressed tar file to a work space,
unwrap it, and run it as root. That's on the guest machines,
of course.
On the host machines there's nothing to do. No scripts, nothing.
You install the whole App from a DGM file (that's a mountable
image file) and when you're done, you click he App's icon and
start creating virtual machines.
BTW, it's not possible to run it from a command line. Someone
suggested typing in vmware. It doesn't work quite that way on a
Mac. If you click on an application's icon, often you're
clicking on something that represents a directory with a whole
pile of stuff below it. If you find out the ultimate binary
that's running by grepping the process table and try to run that
(you need the full pathname from root), it still doesn't
work right.
I've never yet taken the time to figure out how all that works.
I suppose now that I've got my own Mac notebook I ought to
become more of an expert.
Unless you're talking about reinsalling VMware and then
rebuilding my virtual machine? An option I'm less than willing
to pursue. (Sounds like a Microsoft solution! I doubt that's
what you're saying.
Thanks as always.
