Hello all, I thought I'd ask you guys about this one since I've had no luck from vmware forums/kb or google ... I have a centos 4.3 x86-64 (athlon64 with cool-n quiet enabled) with vmware server 1.0 installed and working beautifully with the annoying exception of my guest machines clocks (centos, ubuntu etc) run very fast. I've read the vmware white paper on guest clocks, tried all their suggestions and had no joy. I've tried passing the clock=x parameters to the guests kernel etc to no avail. There is one last hope according to the white paper....install vmware tools and then set clock=pmtr and then use ntp from within the guest to sync the time periodically. Do any of you know a way to get vmware tools installed when you do not run a graphical interface (ie runlevel of the box is 3) ? I cant seem to get it going. Should I download the tools and copy them into the vm ? Any help much appreciated as I'm not cutting over to use production VMs until I can fix this. Cheers, Bards.
