when i loaded vmware up it went to 904 on it's own.

[root@enoch ~]# netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 902

I gave xinetd a start command as well.

Have you told the Windows clients to use port 904?
I have tunneled vmware console through ssh, then I had to tunnel a few ports
The ports where, 902,8222,8333 and 80. Then from the vmware console, I connect to localhost, it work nicely
