There's the glibc issue that's still unresolved. There's another issue with using Firefox as the admin client. It *might* let you in, but the console plugin doesn't appear to be working again. Only client that works for me is InternetExploder.
So that's why the management interfaces from vmware 2 appear to keep crashing!
Also, the console plugin seems to work fine in Firefox on Fedora 12, for me anyway.
The current work around is to downgrade glibc to that of 5.3, at least until the next update from VMWare comes out that should fix this issue.

You don't need to downgrade for the whole OS, you can just do it for VMware. See the procedure in the first comment in this bug http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3884. I have done that and it works fine. Just remember that if you update vmware, the edits to vmware-hostd will be undone, so you need to redo them.
