It's VMWare not WNWare,  VM = Virtual Machine.  This has been discussed
alot on this list since VmWare was released.  Search the archives at 
http://www.debian.org/List-Archives.  You will have to extract the
archive and then extract the driver-only.tar and vmnet-only.tar
archives that are in resulting directory.  Edit the makefiles to point
the includes, -I, to your current kernel headers.  Move the resulting
kernel modules up to the main directory and then run the install.pl
script. Or you can modify the symlinks in /usr/include/{linux,asm} to
point to your current kernel headers.
