(This is sort of a "when it still fails"-solution, sorry)
Try to install vmware again, or rerun vmware-configuration.pl (or what
ever it was called). I installed the same version this wekend,
vmware-tools installed as it should just by "activating" the install
option in the menu.
Btw, you are sure that the tools are not installed? I recall from
version 2 that it claimed that the tools was not installed but they were
(and they worked).
There is a vmware log somewhere, I have no idea whatever whatever the
"tools install" produces some output there but you can always check.
Hmm, just a thought; Are you running the "guest OS" package or are you
installing from a real w2k CD? I did the later as I don't have the
"guest package"
Good luck!
