I had it running on VmWare Workstation and ESX. Nothing special other
than the clock problems. If I remember correctly, after updating the
kernel and rebooting, you'll need to re-run vmware-config.pl script in
the guest.
You'd probably want to download and install latest version of vmware
tools on the guest. Latest version of vmware tools has kernel modules
that load perfectly into CentOS 4 kernel (if you attempt to install
too old version of vmware tools, you'd need to recompile the modules).
