Hello,
Newbie to CentOS and attempting to run it under a windows xp host.
I see there is  a open version of vmware tools available but getting  
various dependency errors when attempting to install. the rpms.

Will these tools install for ver CentOS 5 or are they for an earlier 
version?

P.S. How closely does CentOS match  Redhat binaries? VMware tools (from 
workstation 6) install just fine but could not be configured due to 
various errors.

Thanks,
Fletch
