The unsupported -h option works best on the linux vmware player, when using windows you MUST also supply the VM to run. On linux if you do not supply a VM, it will present you with a dialog to select the virtual machine from. When trying to access a VM hosted at a VMware Server host, you have to add the :8333 port to the ip or hostname. | |||
