Has anyone else seen this on Centos 6.x x64? Running vSphere 5.0 and I install tools from the VMware tar.gz file with ' vmware-install-tools.pl -d' it seems to do all the usual/right things. Once completed there is no 'vmware-tools' listed in 'chkconfig --list'. A reboot of the box leaves vmware tools not running. I have tried completely uninstalling tools and re-installing, not difference. Cheers.
