Libxtst-devel Libxrender-devel xinetd
Yum install-y kernel-headers libxtst-devel libxrender-devel xinetd

3. Install VMware Server:
RPM-IVH vmware-server-1.0.7-108231.i386.rpm
After the installation is complete, run the configuration script to configure:

6) Using Compiler "/USR/BIN/GCC". Use environment variable CC to override.
What's the location of the directory of C headers files that match your running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5pae/build/include]
7) The module loads perfectly in the running kernel.
Want networking for your virtual machines? (YES/NO/HELP) [Yes]
8) Configuring a bridged network for vmnet0.
Your computer has multiple Ethernet network interfaces Available:eth0, eth1. Which want to bridge to Vmnet0? [Eth0]
9) The following bridged networks has been defined:
. Vmnet0 is bridged to eth0
Do you wish to configure another bridged network? (yes/no) [No]
Want to be able to use NAT networking in your virtual machines? (yes/no) [Yes]

. Vmnet1 is a host-only network on private subnet 192.168.155.0.
Do you wish to configure another Host-only network? (yes/no) [No]
The module loads perfectly in the running kernel.
The default port:902 is isn't free. We have selected a suitable alternative port for VMware Server use. You could override this value now. Remember to the this port is connecting to the this server. Specify a port for remote console connections to use [904]
In which directory does you want to keep your virtual machine files?
[/var/lib/vmware/virtual machines]
The path "/var/lib/vmware/virtual machines" does not exist currently. This are going to create it, including needed parent directories. What are you want? [Yes]
Please enter your 20-character serial number.
Type xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx or ' Enter ' to cancel:aam0n-ff00u-u9hc2-42194
