You can tell for which kernel the kmod rpm is built for by looking at the name. For example,
kmod-open-vm-tools-0-0.20080123.2.6.18_53.1.13.el5.i686.rpm
is for kernel 2.6.18_53.1.13.el5.i686
Find the one that matches your running kernel (uname -rm).

Thanks that got me a bit further but still running into dependency errors:
This is my kernel: 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen i686
This is the error message:
Missing Dependency: open-vm-tools-kmod-common >= 0 is needed by package kmod-open-vm-tools
Any idea where I can this this rpm??
Thanks, Fletch
First of all ,you don't want to install the xen kernel as a guest. Just get the standard kernel or kernel-vm. Second, the open-vm-tools rpms for the latest kernel 2.6.18-53.1.14 are not available yet.
