Bom, o seu servidor virtual está completo, resta agora acessá-lo e gerenciá-lo.
No mesmo site onde é feito o download do VMware Server você encontra um software chamado
Management Interface. Faça o download dele também, pois é um aplicativo de gerenciamento das máquinas virtuais muito útil.
Após o download a instalação é muito simples:
# tar xvfz VMware-mui-*.tar.gz
# cd vmware-mui-distrib
# ./vmware-install.pl
Novamente o software fará algumas perguntas sobre a instalação.
