I don't find the VMware tools packages for RHEL 7 or Ubuntu version after 12.x
Index of /45848/tools/esx/6.5u1/repos
Is there any new direction to use open VM tools instead of standard VMware tools?
VMware Documentation for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
Open VM Tools is the open source implementation of VMware Tools and consist of a suite of virtualization utilities that improves the functionality, administration, and management of virtual machines on VMware hypervisors. VMware recommends using the Open VM Tools redistributed by the operating system vendors.
