Hi all
I just installed a VMWare Workstation 9 in a Red Hat LE 5 headless. With VMWare VIX i can start virtual machines whitout GUI but it doesn't work because Workstation hasn't license.
I have the license but i don't know how to register it without console.
Any advise?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you William for quick response.
This question is about server headless (without Graphic environment) . I tried to connect to it with my workstation, but its shows a reduced functionality, i can't put the key using my workstation.
I need a command to execute in a ssh session...
Best regards
I found it
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-vmx-debug --new-sn XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
Thanks for sharing.
How do you start the (headless) VMWare workstation, so it can be connected to using a Workstation in graphical mode ?
(I am running VMWare workstation in a Ubuntu server , would like to run ESXi right on the metal, but it won't allow me to add a local,physical volume to a guest, and running file server via VMDK takes too much performance)
