Enable the VNC console in VMware Server
September 25, 2009
VMware Server provides no real effective way to access the VM's console for OS X users. My buddy Major showed me a brilliant alternative.
Power down your VM and add the following to the .vmx file:
RemoteDisplay.vnc.enabled = "TRUE" RemoteDisplay.vnc.password = "password" RemoteDisplay.vnc.port = "5900"
You may not want to edit this file while the VM is running. Power on the VM to enable the changes. Point your VNC client to the VMware Server, connect and enjoy!
