I searched the web and the forums, but I have not been able to see the answer to my issue. The vmware console works fine. The mui fails with the error: Could not exec vmware-authd: /usr/sbin/vmware-authd does not exist. I looked and it doesn't exist.
From what I can see the vmware console uses its own authd as shown below.
-rwsx- 1 root vmware 161892 Nov 28 16:27 /opt/vmware/server/sbin/vmware-authd
I tired making a link in /usr/sbin pointing to the above file to no avail?
I saw the stuff about 32/64 bit libraries and I am unclear if this applies to my situation. I am running Gentoo 2.6.17 SMP AMD64.
Does anyone have any pointers, suggestions, kind words of encouragement?
